A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There are plenty of weird blogs, just look up The Small Web. There are less weird blogs that make money, but I can't say that I'm overly sad about that.
The headline is a little misleading: This isn't really about small blogs, but more about how Private Equity harvests smaller companies, and leaves their husks to rot. That is a very legitimate problem that needs some serious solutions.
Kagi has a great little feed you can use to randomly explore smallweb blogs. I'd recommend it!

As an example, here's this site dedicated to cataloguing the different variations of Disney park trash cans!

I would also recommend wiby which caters to the really small and old parts of the net.
