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.

Same old story of a community-driven site resorting to ads for revenue. After feedback they started a subscription-based version called totalFark that didn't have ads. Then they introduced ads on totalFark as well, but didn't vet their advertisers. So some of the banner ads were running malicious code on users browsers.

Damn that's crazy... Why allow ads on a subscription site what makes it okay to do that.
