https://currantfeed.cc/I read the wonderful news that Search will get a rewamp: https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/products/search/s.... According to them: "The goal of Search has always been simple: to help you ask anything on your mind — from quick facts to the deep, complex or hyper-specific questions that can be hard to articulate." Hell, fucking no! The web was always about discovery. One is guided, the other is independent. One is careful, the other is reckless. One is calculated, the other is full of surprises. One is efficient... well the other... ehm. Disclaimer: It's NOT an anti-LLM post. I think it's a fascinating and useful technology and I lean on it. This site is 99% LLM generated. It's an Airbnb for websites where you're responsible for keeping their records up-to-date. It does a very lightweight scraping when you submit your site. I dunno if it can handle 100 users, I asked my buddy to submit one and it works! The backend was written in Go and the frontend is Shadcn. After seeing a bunch of Claude badges(TM) with flashing little dots above the main <h> element I'd rather kill myself than let an LLM freely generate my frontend assets. Each website gets a random(ish) discovery number. Also, by default each website load gets a random seed so websites are displayed based on their distance from that random seed. You can then filter and sort sites based on different attributes, like website category, usability, etc. It's free but if I'll ever get 1000 users I swear it will be enshittified to oblivion; for example I'll add ads for every 20 cards. I'm a poor balkan guy. You can already subscribe for an optional Pro account if you want. I haven't checked if it works or not because I'm barely alive (1:30 AM here) and it was the last thing I tried to wire in. PS.: The logo is a Lissajous curve which I find simply beautiful; it doesn't mean anything: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissajous_curve.
