Given reddit's situation and recent discussions of enshittification, especially with LLM nuking search results, I thought it'd be neat to have a curated directory of more indie websites, interesting little hobby places, timewasters, or even your own personal sites.

https://cari.institute/ Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute consumer aesthetics, mostly graphic design, mostly on the advertising side, some exhibit or retail design. little to no industrial design, unfortunately. and relatedly, the CARI examples are pulled from are.na boards: https://www.are.na/ are.na is kinda like pinterest but without the ads. i really love are.na and have been a premium member for many years.
