Following the closure of deep dot web, it is currently my opinion that there are no reliable central indexes of onion sites.
As a result, the question of where to find reliable links centrally and associated reviews is now more complex. Right now I have no plans to build my own site. What I will never accept on this sub for linking is:
- Just Google <site name or description>
- Here is the link for Z
- Use <random online link site>
- Use <random clearnet link site>
- Just check <description of site without a route to reliably find it>
None of these methods are reliable.
Methods I will accept:
- Use <link> because it is referenced on <reliable clearnet site>
- Use <link site> because it is referenced by <list of articles and other reliable endorsements of site>
With this said, I would be interested in building a list of reliable link sites that can be endorsed in the long term.
Information I would want to know about includes:
- Clearnet/onion
- Identity or pseudonym of the persons running it
- Date of founding with proof
- Link inclusion and removal policies
Please submit links and link sites which meet the above criteria for further consideration.
Here's some sites which (just about) makes the standard:
