Same - but mine are also primarily so I can hand out links to specific articles - they're not hidden but they're not advertised either (and they're static sites with almost zero logging, so I wouldn't really notice either except that this site has a published list :-)
Hi, I took a quick look around the niche I'm interested in, and there's a lot of local history blogs you're missing. One of the bigger examples: https://threadinburgh.scot/
On reflection, maybe you've captured the bulk of the "Small Web Movement" (the technology-leaning bit of the blogosphere that is self-consciously part of a reactionary movement against the corporate web) but you haven't captured the bulk of the still-active blogosphere?
So I've got a question: What's the mission statement for kagisearch/smallweb - a curated list of Small Web sites, or a curated list of active blogosphere sites?
Because the current strategy for adding sites seems heavily biased towards the small web movement to me.
