Remember when the internet felt like a giant treasure hunt instead of just… cycling through the same five apps? Yeah, me too. That’s why I started COI (Corners of Internet)—a place where I dig up weird, fun, and happy corners of the web so you don’t have to.

No algorithms. No doomscrolling. Just pure internet exploration.

If it’s cool, underrated, or a little unhinged, it goes on COI.

Check it out: www.cornersofinternet.com

Also, if you’ve got a favorite weird site, drop it below! I’m always looking for new rabbit holes to fall into.

Earlier 40’s and I have the opposite opinion on this.

I think the button needs to be prominent so people remember where it is if they find the site useful and now want to contribute. Building things and hosting them isn’t free and I have no objection to paying for quality content.

Haha maybe I need to run a poll somewhere to settle this out, appreciate your thought.

Its like asking people to subscribe on Youtube. People say they hate it but it verifiably increases the numbers by a wide margine.

yeah a CTA of sorts true.

they hate it less if it's funny and easy and doesn't trigger paywall-creep trauma?

It would be interesting to see the results.
