it's quite obvious that that smaller chans that aren't 4chan need new people to build a community or at least gain enough users to justify keeping the site online.
They do not. You don't understand the point of websites. If people feel that a site needs to exist, then it is already justified. You do not need to gain users to justify a site's existence.
 
I'm a little skeptical about anonfiles, say my common sense is tingling but maybe I'm too sensitive. Added both.
I find it hard to guess exactly what it's intended for. Might be as simple as being a honeypot for child porn uploaders. Though it does let you upload over Tor, which is obviously a good idea if you're uploading a copy of the latest American Truck Simulator. I certainly wouldn't upload anything that I needed to be able to retrieve later or that I didn't want to share with the entire world (without encrypting it).

Even though the filename is included by default at the end of the URLs it generates when you upload stuff, it isn't actually needed. The ID's it generates aren't that long and in theory even if the host isn't looking through stuff, some hostile actor could guess IDs and look for juicy stuff, whether that's your unencrypted backup of a company database or whatever else they might be after

and

work equally well for accessing file 'DfM2Yezeuf'.
 

I found it a couple of days ago, some categories are very barebones and it looks to be a personal spergatory wiki but it has some stuff in one place that I would have trouble finding if I looked for it. Like this:
Just tons of old scanned game manuals from each region and platform and system. There's also cover-art and things like maps. I'm submitting it because it's all easily accessible in one place.
 
https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Main_Page - The ultimate TES wiki, sets the standard for every fan wiki out there. Has an article on everything TES related, from walkthroughs to lore to modding info. It's very fun to read even if you familiar with TES games only through Skyrim. The contrast between UESP and TES wikia is striking, and gives a proof that wikia pages are cancer.

https://morrowind.jpbetley.com/ - A neat little tool for Morrowind that helps you plan your character.

https://plaza.one/ - Online vaporwave and future funk radio. Pretty self-explanatory. You can also download an app and listen to it on your phone. The layout is very nice also.

http://radio.garden/ - Let's you listen to radio stations across the world! I find it to be very comfy, when you stumble upon some weird Nigerian radio and just vibe to the music.

https://priyom.org/ - A website dedicated to spooky scary number stations. Complete with info on known frequencies, schedule and a page where you can listen to radio stations online. They also have a large library of recordings.

https://www.theoi.com/ - A website about Greek mythology. Pretty informative, they also have a wide array of primary sources, imagery and articles.

https://lospec.com/ - Lots of resources, tutorials and other helpful stuff for pixel art.

Added, but I don't know why.
John's Rocketry How to build rockets.
Added and very cool.

I also added one of my own, https://www.johnwdefeo.com/my-work/good-cheap-and-fast
 
What I have isn't exactly what was requested, I think its utility more than makes up for it. Weboas.is (RIP) was an incredibly useful site as it not only integrated regular search, it also lists (mostly free) resources and niche search engines. So while it isn't usually non-indexed stuff, it is basically a catalog of various tools to find whatever non-indexed thing you're searching for. In addition it has things like links to references, resources, and related communities. Here's one I kind of stumbled on in their news section. If you are the type to find dox, this is essentially a homepage with every conceivable tool you could need.

Unfortunately I also learned about their forums because the "RIP 1992-2022" linked to where the site owner posted their suicide note. Luckily it seems like those left behind aren't wasting any time. https://weboasis.app/ is a clone made by refugees since the original site is essentially on borrowed time. https://github.com/weboasis is another way to access these tools. It is far and away one of the best resources I've found in years.
 
https://hackerfactor.com/blog/ - blog ran by some academic with a photo forensics website, majority of it is about that stuff but also other aspects of working with images and videos. Which also include his bemused rantings about dealing with CP uploaders from Russia and Ukraine. I learned about perceptual hashing by reading his post about it.
Great site for information on obscure 3d accelerators. https://www.vgamuseum.info/
Added but I don't know whether to categorize this as under "Sites" or under "Search" probably because I don't really understand the value add. Are people more likely to use this to find info on a specific card or set of cards they're looking for or are they going to browse it with popcorn and say "hmm yes the Quadro 600 does have a d-sub pin connector interesting"
https://www.filfre.net/ - The Digital Antiquarian, a blog about "history of computer entertainment and digital culture". Lots of history on mostly really old games by the looks of it.
All added.
 
http://68k.news/ is a fun one if you want to browse news from an ancient system that can barely do internet. The links actually lead to a text version of the article and the pictures from the original article are extra linked (not embedded) in scaled down, low resolutions such systems can handle. It's also good if you just want to read news without the bloat. Formatting is kinda iffy sometimes, but it's navigateable. Also good for scraping I guess.

Maybe you should have a category called "archives" or "information repositories" for each category.

Both added. WebOasis is so big I had to make a new category for it.
