My buddy and I are building an index with a category interface like this one (and indieseek.xyz).

We index anything we consider authentic and contentful, but our category interface (mostly) consists of small web pages. Happy to hear any feedback.

Strange, I looked around and couldn’t find a single contentful or authentic site in your index, rather the opposite.

I appreciate the observation, there's automated and manual curation that goes into this so there's definitely corpo stuff that shows up. We probably made things more difficult by wanting to include mainstream sources but heavily favor indie ones.

We have substantial lists of approved and denied domains so the authentic content is definitely there but it's not visible from a few clicks off of the categories page, we have more work to do.
