This is my favourite website
Very niche here, but worth a look if youβre in the market for rechargeable batteries:
Crazy detailed benchmarks and technical analysis of flashlights, batteries, and chargers.

The site that comes to mind is Ian's Shoelace Website. The ultimate guide about shoelaces. The most impactful/important thing for me was Ian's Knot, the fastest and most correct way to tie a shoe. I discovered this website in the mid-2000s and have been using his method since. Anyway, it's a fun and comprehensive website about shoelaces. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm

That's definitely https://noclip.website/
I love retro video games (and current games). And some badass implemented the rendering of several games and consoles in JavaScript just for fun, so that you can explore levels from many games right in your browser.
Note that I did say explore, not play. This website let's you fly the camera through the level like with a "no clip cheat" (hence the site name).
It somewhat works on mobile devices in landscape mode (and maybe also "show desktop page"), but is best viewed and controlled on a PC.
Pair it with sci-hub so you can actually read the whole articles and not just abstracts.
I was sticking with the 'one website'. Thanks for adding my second post. ;-)
Here's another: https://libgen.is/ - Library Genesis
Anna's Archive does it for me. It's so good!
Never have I ever felt so welcome.

I love a good weblog with all kinds of link rabbit holes to fall down.
Also you can ring the fish doorbell and help release the fish: https://visdeurbel.nl/?fbclid=IwAR05zJk-mJiBIx5zq88S78E559cYHV-kkHOSM21MW1XX_e3jaqBfdTN-z30
Omg! The fish doorbell just made my day, thank you
Isn't that marvelous? I can't wait for spring.

He's been running the site since 95. I've been visiting since 96 or 97. I even provided the hardcopy for the Big Lebowski shooting script which he posted a few months before the movie premiered.

Niche hobby website from the 90s that's both really useful and still updated (somewhat) - the Parker pen penography. Look at all those pens! Genuinely the most useful source of info on the topic of old Parkers that isn't a big hefty coffee table book. Most of it probably isn't too interesting to non-fountain pen people, but there's some articles about the history of Parker and their decline that might be interesting if you like economics and buisness (like the one about the Itala
Incredibly niche! And funnily enough one Ive been on before.
People talking about Windows 98 and Pentium 3 processors all day long, feels just like home.

Well, Lemmy...
Curbside Classic a nice hobbyist site about Classic cars and related subjects. I go there every day, has a lot of extremely informative (but very niche) content

There was a website where if no messages where not sent in 24 Hours it would die, I sometimes wonder if it's still up
When I I've exhausted my Subscribed (HOT) and All (Top 12 Hours) Lemmy feeds but still have the desire to scroll, I usually head over to Printables to look at 3D prints for a while... see what my printer will be doing for the next week. I really like the filtering options that model site has. Less often I'll do the same on MyMiniFactory
