No fluff, no clickbait — just hidden gems, underrated tools, indie games/ films & lot more. Discover the best corners of the internet, curated for you by Coi.
Remember when the internet felt like a giant treasure hunt instead of just… cycling through the same five apps? Yeah, me too. That’s why I started COI (Corners of Internet)—a place where I dig up weird, fun, and happy corners of the web so you don’t have to.
No algorithms. No doomscrolling. Just pure internet exploration.
If it’s cool, underrated, or a little unhinged, it goes on COI.

Also, if you’ve got a favorite weird site, drop it below! I’m always looking for new rabbit holes to fall into.

Some feedback: the "hi I'm coi" thing at the top? I thought it was another LLM AI thing introducing itself. I closed the tab immediately, but then double checked when I read the rest of this post.
The social media links at the top, especially Twitter, are a negative for me. Fuck twitter and Facebook.
The big color buttons (that are not actually buttons) interspersed with text is a choice but it feels very bad-modern to me. If you're going for more retro pre-shit, maybe take inspiration from https://evenbettermotherfucking.website/ or friends.
Actually I do wanna get a designer for the project in the near future when i make some money with this site and turn it very retroish.. Rn i'm working with templates and preexisting codes. Yeah I know its not perfect but it will get there slowly I promise.
Regarding the Hi I'm Coi, yes now I get how it may sound LLMish. But the idea was to kinda introduce a character called Coi who is surfing the internet and fining cool shit uk.
Socials : i know it is kinda negative even I wanna be far away but need to get some traffic for the site. I don't know how to work around it. Maybe when there is more awareness about the site I will remove it.
Hold on to your design, don’t let some critics change it.
I design web gui stuff a lot, and I am hyper sensitive to most designers including me, being constricted to some conventions. So I really appreciate well designed non conventional stuff, like used to be more common years ago.
Your web stuff adds value which will go away if you conform too much
Edit typos
Honestly all the feedbacks are just overwhelming trying to tag them as good to haves or not.
Thank you your comment clears up a lotta self doubt. Means a lot.
