A webring is a circular doubly linked list - to insert a new site, you only need two existing sites to update their links. It's decentralized and works with any tech stack, including editing a static HTML file.

It's a little silly if everyone is working off a centrally-maintained JSON file, you might as well turn it into a blogroll at that point.

But extremely fragile since if even one node in the network goes down the network is broken and if two go down then there will be sites no longer reachable from others. You want to know the other nodes in the network so you can deal with nodes that go down or leave the network.

If those are concerns to you, you are not really the target audience.

We could always build a DHT instead
