In the tea, Jubal said that people have trouble finding good things and community on the open web. Obviously a lot of that is people using the heavily censored and wacked internal search engines on closed social media rather than a real search engine on the open web. So in this thread, lets post some cool things which are on the open web not a giant social media platform.
I don't have a good definition of the open web, but "findable on any search engine not just an internal search engine" is a good sign, and so is "creators can export their work in some simple standard format like bbcode, html, etc. and re-post it somewhere run by someone else." If you have to enable scripts and log in to see it, that is a bad sign.
Today I will post three out of the United States.
