Ah, links. The way we share things on the internet. I feel a lot of people on indie web love links as a way to share stuff in general, sites, resources etc, which is quite nice. I do like looking through them from time to time, though I mostly like looking for site links rather than anything resource-related or anything else. I already spend a lot of time doing things like that in real life, so online it's not my thing.
I have my own little link page that mostly has fandom-related links, some resource links that i really just use a lot when looking for stuff and at the end some random links to thinks I like that don't fit either categories. Call it a personal bookmark page except it's shared with everyone online.
I am actually not too fond of big links pages, it distracts me too much. Too much going on, I will get lost and forget what I was doing in the first place. It's a nightmare for an ADHD person which is why I do tend to just not do it unless I have to. Even bookmark navigation on PC is a struggle. I'm a person who doesn't like too much stuff going on on my screen and a lot of open windows with different links are one of the things that are not good for me lol. I keep mine mainly cause I know fandom nowadays is shit, it's hard to find events that aren't anti run and won't harass you for what you like outside of the event, so having links to events like that is important to me to show people that, it's still not all horrible. We're still doing something. Hand in there buddy!
Links can be fun, but in moderation cause it gets too much at some point.
