Neat, thanks for sharing.
My main feedback is that it subjectively looks and feels very much like the SEO blogspam you get at the top of every google search these days.
It's hard to put my finger on exactly what, but it feels visually busy and almost a little too polished.

Thanks dude!
I've been feeling weird about the design since I launched it, definitely needs a redesign. I've mostly been focused on the newsletter side of things and ignored the website. Thanks for bringing it up - I've pushed it to the top of my todo list.

I'm not the OP, but I thought the design was OK.
One thing I'd suggest removing however is the Product Hunt logo/widget. It's meaningless for people that may find your site via search. They don't care if it was the "Product of the Day" or whatever. Those are mostly for bragging rights in the lean startup community.
Another reason to remove it is because it creates that negative "blogspam" signal in online communities like HN that are familiar with PH. There are lots or barebones websites offering color palettes and CSS gradients and calling themselves "products". Don't turn your website into one of those.

One thing that bothered me is that the images are sort of popping in and causing the layout to shift as you scroll down. If you set a dimensions on the img-tags, it will at least remove the layout shift.
The design looks the same as https://www.billiondollarpitchdecks.com/ both by FlowGenius.co which is where the OP is from, judging by post history. These sites are created using WebFlow (https://webflow.com/) so I'm guessing part of the WebFlow look and feel (no code website builder)
I use remove.bg, tempmail, and down for everyone or me somewhat regularly and used to love using bug me not (like 10 years ago). This reminds me of netted.net. They also focus mostly on their newsletter which gives one suggestion per day. Built by the same guys who started The Webbys.
I found some of these genuinely interesting and useful, so thanks. Overall I don't see a reason to come back to the website and not interested in the newsletter format. Nevertheless, I think you can turn this into _something_ if you are persistent with interesting websites.
I'm glad you found some sites useful! And appreciate your honesty about the newsletter. I'd love to hear your thoughts about how it could be improved?
P.s. Our Revue page has the most up-to-date websites (https://www.getrevue.co/profile/insanelyusefulwebsites)
I've been lazy in uploading them to the site...

I made a link site 20 years ago: http://tentacle.rupy.se
I still use it to this day.
My memory is not what it used to be.
Now I just need a dead link reporter tool for it.

No idea what that entails but keen to browse your site tomorrow, cheers

Nice. Enjoyed seeing your collection.
I fixed registrations now...
You can also use the tool and then list your entries like I do here: http://marc.rupy.se
With a simple script tag.

Thx!
I was disappointed when Flush, which seems like a neat service, linked to an app only available on Apple devices

Wow, someone actually built it....

I think they misread the spec unfortunately.
> Non Goals
> This version will not support the following features:
> multiple time zones for one member. All members are assumed to be in the same time zone.

And I'm grateful that they did. Among all the sites listed on that page, this is the one I use the most.
It's always interesting to get pulled out of one's own bubble, because I fail to find any of these websites useful? (other than mynoise, which I already knew)
https://audiobites.io/ is giving security risk in FF.
Looks like an Amazon EC2 certificate mixup. They'll probably fix it eventually
> I have decided to sunset Audio Bites so that I can focus on my other ventures.
I don't think so buddy

Thanks, pal?
I bookmarked this strange bookmark of sites :).
Looks valuable, some of them might come in handy.
But it's unstructured now and hard to navigate. It would be great to add categories and filtering. So users will be able to browser only what they're interested in.
And if you plan on adding new sites it might help returning users if it displays "new since you last visited".

Nice collection, have to mention that this[0] is probably not the way you intended the card elements to look like on big screens (with the extra white space after the image).

Add tags! Add as much as information as you can to be honest. I want to read before I want to click, specially if the link is going to redirect me to a new website different than the one I am one.
It looks nice. The "Midomi" tile has a minor spelling error: "dentify" and the utm parameters sometimes suggest that this website is an email.
Does anyone know a free, online version of neural enhance?

Not hosted (who’s paying?) but this Docker image + pre-trained weights works pretty well, no special hardware required:

Couldnt this be hosted in the browser (client side)?
Ha, if you so please. All hail our new universal VM!
Super Agent works great! What a difference it makes.
