Thanks, cross posting to !opensource@programming.dev
If you're looking for more sources for your site, Wikimedia Commons has a page with lists of sources for freely licensed media, sorted by content type. The photography list in particular is really long, and sorted into categories.
Thank you, I will definitely check it out.

Awesome!!
Can't wait to go through all of that! Thank you so much!!! This gives me some early www vibes where pages like these were crucial to find content you were interested in
Thank you for your kind words, I hope you find it useful and fun.
Always good to see more effort to surface these things. A couple of possible enhancements come to mind.
- Pepper & Carrot probably belongs under comics, and/or comics belongs as a subset of fiction.
- It'd be great to filter by license, maybe similar to what Openverse (which you already have listed) does. I know that Creative Commons doesn't see a problem with incompatible licenses, but I feel like people in the space have strong feelings about how "free/libre" it is to say that something can't be used commercially (whatever that means) or can't be altered.
- If you want a pile of fiction of various sorts, at the risk of self-promoting, I spotlight (and ideally have discussions around) Free Culture works on Saturdays. https://john.colagioia.net/blog/tag/bookclub/ (And a bunch of the links actually lead to collections.)
- Another pile, you'll need to figure out how to sift through on your own (I haven't had the time to figure out how to parse it), but Chris "Sanglorian" Sakkas posted the (I imagine) final backup of his Free and Open Works wiki, sort of your predecessor project. (Edit: I stupidly forgot the link https://archive.org/details/freeand-open-works-20200811084450)
- Too much manual labor, I realize, especially as the list expands, but ideally, it'd be nice to have some idea of what lives at the other end of a link beyond the format. The videos especially could plausibly be anything...
Thanks for getting this rolling!

I thought a lot about having subsets(especially in the news section) but I really need a easy way to implement it using only HTML and CSS, which I could not figure out yet(I am not a web developer).
-
about having a filter, I still did not get a time to implement a filter, but it's planned for the future for sure.
-
I will surf through all this piles, hopefully I might find a lot of high quality resources to add.
-
About having a description for each item, the best idea I had about how to display it is a hover text which could be implemented in the future, but it's still early to implement sonething like this.
I really appreciate your comments and suggestions, don't hesitate to reach out to me if you had any other suggestion.
Thank you.
Likewise, feel free to reach out if you need a hand. I don't always have time, but I do my share of weird programming.

Thank you, I added the game and I am working on podcasts section to add the podcast you suggested.
I like the idea of it. First bit of feedback though: might need to adjust how the link is formatted. It tries to take me to a Lemmy page if I just click.
I edited it in the post, thank you a lot.

Libre Culture
What is libre culture?
Libre culture is all about empowering people. While the general philosophy stems greatly from the free software movement, libre culture is much broader and encompasses other aspects of culture such as music, movies, food, technology, etc.
Some beliefs include but aren't limited to:
- That copyright should expire after a certain period of time.
- That knowledge should be available to people, not locked away.
- That no entity should have unjust control or possession of others.
- That mass surveillance is about mass control, not justice.
- That we can all band together to help liberate each other.

Rules
I've looked into the ways other forums handle rules, and I've distilled their policies down into two simple ideas.
-
Please show common courtesy: Let's make this community one that people want to be a part of.
-
Please keep posts generally on topic
-
No NSFW content
-
When sharing a Libre project, please include the name of its license in the title. For example: “Project name and summary (GPL-3.0)”
Libre culture is a very very broad topic, and while it's perfectly okay for a conversation to stray, I do ask that we keep things generally on topic.
