Pretty sure this is almost commonly already accepted as fact. I doubt the amount of genuine sites is low though. The age of geocities and angelfire is long gone.

Can we get a giant site that list of all of these smaller websites? Like a web-directory?

Sure you can search using keywords in google, but half the time it brings you to click-bait Jew articles listing the “top ten” site for whatever keyword you entered.

I remember when I first joined the web there weren't any search engines. There were directories with lists of sites.

When you visited a site, they'd have a list of similar sites on their page, kind of like a virtual bulletin board

I used to love just following links to different sites. You can do that on Wiki pages now but it's not as fun.

It's really not because it's all the same. Following those links was so organic. People put thought into their link lists and you could really find some treasures that way

You don't see sites doing this any more. It's all about the individual site nowadays
