Allowed

 Anything interesting, weird or astonishing

 Exceptional blog posts

Usually in essay form, articles of exceptional quality are likely accepted.

 Exceptional company or personal websites

Seen a website of a company or a private person which really strikes your mind? Submit it here!

 Exceptional browser games

Playing in the browser is cool. Candy Crush is not. Submit really cool browser games only.

 Stuff to learn with or from

We love interactive tutorials, high quality how-to articles or any other stuff to feed your curious mind. However, we won't accept links to some random Udemy courses or 10 min. Youtube videos.

Not allowed

 Low quality content or news articles
News articles, boring blog posts and other low-quality content is nothing what we want on Cloudhiker. Exceptions may apply.

 Social network posts
Any content from Facebook, Twitter or similar networks is not permitted. YouTube videos of outstanding quality may be accepted as an exception.
 No content behind paywalls or logins
If you have to pay or register to access a website, it is not a good fit for Cloudhiker.
Examples: The Wallstreet Journal, Medium premium articles
 No raw images or other media
interesting-charts.pdf or must-see.gif are not allowed. Media must be embedded on a website.
 No software downloads
Software should be usable in the browser. Info pages for very unique software may be approved.

Plain online shops selling regular goods are not a good fit for Cloudhiker.
