500 more independent systems from the small web

Catalogued
Reading
120 min read

A curated list of 500 projects, protocols, communities, tools, and directories different from the previous 100-item list. The focus is independent web, self-hosting, the fediverse, RSS, wikis, personal publishing, pubnix/tilde culture, Gemini/Gopher, open communication, and non-corporate infrastructure. Some links are active projects; others are historical or archived, but still matter for understanding the lineage of the independent internet.

Brutally honest criterion: in a 500-item list, metadata such as license/status can change. Treat the official link as the source of truth before installing, paying for, or relying on anything.
