Kagi Small Web (as it features many blogs from people that have been featured on HN)<p><a href="https://kagi.com/smallweb" rel="nofollow">https://kagi.com/smallweb</a>
I pull up the browser bookmark section labelled <i>News</i> and I look at each site manually to see what things people here may find interesting. It is just a list of sites I have found interesting articles in the past. As paywalls get added I delete the site entry.
Most were found via internet searches while trying to solve certain problems for work/life. Some links were shared with me, either personally or via HN/Digg/Reddit.<p>---<p>Explanations of where I found my most upvoted links:<p>[298] Story Structure 101: Super Basic Shit (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/34576085" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/34576085</a>)<p>- I think I found this on Digg.<p>[239] Scale of the Universe (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/40083285" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/40083285</a>)<p>- Kagi search for something I wanted to share after seeing <a href="https://youtu.be/1kjvgWBHzec" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/1kjvgWBHzec</a>. I think I saw the original scale of the universe animation either on HN or Digg.<p>[136] How to Move Your Google Photos (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/38065002" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/38065002</a>)<p>- Found while trying to figure out how to move photos from my university Google Workspace account before it was deleted.<p>[51] Keypirinha: A fast launcher for keyboard ninjas on Windows (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39022891" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39022891</a>)<p>- I have used many keyboard launchers, starting with Launchy. I think I found Launchy via HN. (Maybe Reddit/Digg?) After commenting on some related HN discussion, I decided to share my favorite launcher. I think I discovered Keypirinha via a Show HN.<p>[40] Pico CSS v2 comes with 380 manually crafted colors (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39488979" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39488979</a>)<p>- I found Pico while searching for Tailwind alternatives that didn't obliterate all default styling into indistinguishable elements.<p>[33] A smarter CD command. Supports all major shells (<a href="https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39376538" rel="nofollow">https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39376538</a>)<p>- Zoxide was recommended to me on YouTube, after viewing related videos (Maybe OML videos? I started searching for something related to plaintext on Kagi, and the results took me to a YouTube video.)<p>---<p>One time, I checked an HN account with a fairly high karma. Turns out it was spamming many posts per day. Mostly reposting other people's new links that hadn't caught on yet or freshly re-eligible links (was about a year since it last made the HN front page). Most posts had few/no votes, but a small percentage of these reposts got a lot of votes.
