Link Stash

This is an ever-growing list of interesting and/or useful web links I have found, exported from my active buku bookmark manager. Hopefully you find something useful. I lost a few descriptions in the migration so working on pulling them back in.

No fancy searching here, though I'm adding appropriate tags (some are still a bit shite, thanks ChatGPT). Ctrl-F is your friend (or whatever "find on page" function your device uses).
