This one got me excited when I stumbled on it, it's this big restoration archive of old GeoCities sites!

I know you said "Don't go using this as an excuse to advertise your own site" but I think it's worth making an exception in this case considering my website is literally just a huge directory of other peoples websites.
I've got 787 sites listed at the moment, but I'm constantly adding new sites to the directory. If you want to check it out you can do so by clicking here: Peelopaalu
If you have any suggestions or whatever then let me know. Would be cool to hear your thoughts on this too OP, I like coming across other people that share my obscure interest for the smaller and weirder parts of the web.

Searx is decentralized meaning anyone can host an instance of it. Both sites are unfiltered or at least less filtered compared to Google or even DuckDuckGo. The former requires you to download a client (pain in the ass, unless you're passionate about using p2p search engines). The latter has many public instances available for you to use.
As for interesting sites, I'd like to introduce you to suckless.org (link to their philosophy page). The maintainers of this site have a very interesting philosophy on software and believe simplicity is most important in software creation. The site links to the source code of many amazing pieces of software (for unix-like systems). My favourite application is sent, which provides a text-based slideshow presentation maker. You write your presentation entirely as a text file, and it turns it into a slideshow. The slides are simple: black sans-serif font on a white background (can be changed when compiling the app). Text is scaled based on the amount you have on a given slide. It supports images. If you try to make your slides too lengthy, it scrambles them on purpose so that you don't create a bad presentation. Theres tons of good stuff here, definitely worth checking out, even if you don't use unix-like systems, but just to see their philosophy and reasoning behind what they do.
I checked out this site called lomando.com, It's basically this creepy website I checked out when I'm in middle school.
Good for if you have a couple of minutes to spare. It's not a dirty site, I promise

I finally made another discovery! This is a very cool site, I haven't explored it much myself yet but there seems to be a ton of stuff!!! Like very much!! Ok maybe it's not as big as I thought... But it's still very cool!

Not a whole website on its own but I remember someone, probably my dad, shared it with me years ago, and upon recently seeing a photo showing the distance between Earth and the moon I was reminded of it.
