Anybody else remember "webrings"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring

I still have the code on some of my old web pages.

I couldn't remember the name for "webrings", but it's time again to have them.

A bunch of us eYoutubers decided to use the hashtag #ElectronicsCreators
and you can find us here:
https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/electronicscreators

Doesn't stop anyone from using it, but it's the best there is.

Why not create an informal webring?

If web page creators J,K,L agree to insert links J->K->L->J and P comes along and wants to join, then all they have to do is convince someone in the ring, say K, that they belong.
K then changes their link to L to be to P, and P creates their link to L; the ring is now J->K->P->L->J.
If K ceases to like P, they just recreate their link to L, thus making P an orphan.

Has the pleasant side effect of visibly pointing out to gurgle (etc) that they they aren't the sole guardians of searchable/browseable links.

I do not have the app and can't access their monkey, but MS Copilot seemed to know that beavers hold the soldering iron properly !

   In the same vein that some people have used 'accidental' fires to cover up wrong-doing,  what about someone USING A.I. to cover up, say,  a grisly murder ?  Just saying.
Security camera footage clearly shows neighbor 'Fred' stalking around behind our house,....before the shooting.  (That's a fictional example, but you get the possibilities).

Frank Zappa has an appropriate fitting song;
   'I am the slime....coming out of your TV...'

Pretty good,  if you replace slime, with the word 'slop'.
