When you need time off from Reddit, Insta, TikTok – Alternative to Doomscrolling

back

There are only a few other good sites that feature a collection of Webring Lists (which I have listed down below). Most other webring lists as of today are outdated, are unreachable or have been shut down. Hence I have love for the oldweb and enjoy browsing private sites without having to rely on any of the big tech search engines (which are getting worse from day to day), I just came up with the idea of maintaining my own list of webrings. My list features only webrings that have active members and which are actively maintained by their admins.

This page will be split in separate sections and features webrings (of course) but also other webring Lists, webrings as a service (saas) and webring scripts. So I'm pretty sure you will find something new here.

Submit new sites

You can submit / recommend webrings, scripts or websites related to webrings by using the Guestbook within the right sidebar. If you can't see the sidebar (you probably are online with a mobile device, shame on you) please scroll down to the bottom of the page to reach my commentbox / guestbook.

Thanks @ Tuffgrounds I!
