Like most people, I use the internet to look for inspiration for my hobbies, like cooking, baking, crochet, lettering etc. AI scammers and AI slop are killing my enthusiasm though. I'm using too much time and energy to sift though all the crap in order to find some gems.

What I need is some place to collect and curate trustworthy websites and do a websearch in those sites instead of the whole web whenever I need a recipe or are looking for my next fiber project. Does anybody have ideas or tips how to pull that of?

This. I've started my collection buying books at estate sales. Dirt cheap and likely from an era where you probably had to be credible to publish something in a bound volume on actual paper.

There's gotta be a series about this. Only "The Old Ones" that can operate something that's not an iDevice, the only ones left who can handwrite and don't use AI for every question they ever had. The only ones with books because everyone else threw them out and burned them. Would be interesting but we are living it right now so maybe no need.

Hehe, I'm definitely one of them Old Ones. It may be time to turn Luddite.
