Most of the time I feel the open web is in decline and then I find a site like this, and a stop at hollydragon reinforced that mood lift, the cumulative effect of finding occasional excellent independent content versus the cumulative effect of finding mostly mediocre content is real for the long term reader maintaining web habits today.

Now wishing more sites covered topics with this level of care, and a look at bevelbison extended that wish across more subjects, the rarity of careful coverage on most topics is a problem and this site is one of the small antidotes to that broader pattern of casual or surface treatment of complex subjects.
borealgarnet
Worth flagging that this approach to the topic is fresh without being contrarian, and a stop at borealgarnet extended the same fresh angle, finding original perspective on familiar subjects is rare and this site has clearly developed its own way of seeing rather than echoing the dominant takes from elsewhere consistently.

The examples really helped me grasp the points faster than abstract descriptions would have, and a stop at dunecovemerchantgallery added a few more practical illustrations that drove the message home, the kind of writing that knows its readers learn better through concrete situations rather than vague generalities is rare and worth recognising clearly.
