Great to see another IndieWeb project on the HN front page. The more the merrier. At this point, it almost feels like we need a meta-directory to keep track of them all. For others like me who are fond of these projects, here are a few other directories and indices worth checking out:

Oh delightful, thank you for this! I also maintain a somewhat similar meta-list on my site lynkmi: https://lynkmi.com/oisin/lynkmi%2520adjacent

Going to dig into these soon and will post a few!

I recently built a Small Web Discovery feature for the WebLibre Android browser that unifies multiple sources (currently only Wander and Kagi Small Web). The feature is still very alpha, in the upcoming weeks I will look into adding more sources. Documentation here: https://docs.weblibre.eu/weblibre/small-web.html and there are some screenshots in this Wander issue: https://codeberg.org/susam/wander/issues/11
I'm quite fond of https://ooh.directory/
Personally, I use https://github.com/kagisearch/smallweb/ to feed my search engine / crawler. It contains 30k + rss/atom feeds of indie web sites. Thx for sharing this and the other directories.
Oh cool, you have your own search engine & crawler? I don't suppose you've written / blogged about it anywhere?

(I have my own search engine too, but still haven't blogged about it. One day.)

these are awesome. linking to all of them from III. i personally use Gossip's Web a lot (https://gossipsweb.net) to find new cool sites and wanted something similar but searchable. i also felt like i had a really good alliteration i couldnt waste
Slashpages often have a directory where you can discover new indie websites. Also fun to add those slashpages to your own website.

https://slashpages.net

There is also https://personalsit.es which I help maintain.
Thank you for sharing text.blogosphere. This is a cool list, and I love the wander page you've built.
I'm baffled that I only knew wiby.me from this list. Time to dive in!
We need to figure out how to monetize this trend.
