i think you were looking for the Old & Obsolete Online Ossuary - indie sites are allowed to use react and be closed source

entirely user submissions. think https://gossipsweb.net but with semantic search on user descriptions. fairly low key

these are awesome. linking to all of them from III. i personally use Gossip's Web a lot (https://gossipsweb.net) to find new cool sites and wanted something similar but searchable. i also felt like i had a really good alliteration i couldnt waste

III is basically Gossips Web but searchable. users submit sites with descriptions used for semantic search

not a crawl-based index

freshman_dev··on Ask HN: What is something you built but never marketed?
I rebuilt Wordbase, a discontinued word strategy game

https://wordbase.app

It gets a steady trickle of users searching for the original app, and that's all it's meant for (not monetized), so I don't market it

In its current form this sign-up page looks sketchy or just broken at best:

  - Terms of service link is broken  
  - No explanation like this on the site itself  
  - ‘Beta tester 50% off’ doesn’t link to anything  
  - Header image is cut off
For those reasons I would not trust my email to this site if I came across it on the web
