Strange websites that shouldn't exist (but do)

Every so often you meet a website and think: why would anyone build this, and who is paying for it? These strange websites exist because someone had an idea they could not let go of. Odd websites, unusual websites, whatever you call them, they are the heart of this directory.

Endless Horse is a horse whose name has an absurdly long run of o's, and the more you scroll, the more horse you get. The Million Dollar Homepage is a grid of tiny ads sold in 2005, still online, and a monument to a great idea and to link rot. The Library of Babel holds every possible page of text. Your World of Text is an infinite text canvas shared with strangers. Infinite Mac boots a classic Macintosh inside a browser tab with emulation, and Windows 93 is a fake operating system that never existed.

What do they have in common? They take something small seriously. They are also fragile, because strange sites are exactly the kind that get abandoned. That is why we check every link daily, and why a few entries come with a note, like a plain-HTTP link or a content warning.

Use "Surprise me from this list" for a random pick, or read from the top: the first eight are the strangest and the most reliable. If one of these pulls you in, you have our sympathy and the clock on every card.
