I thought quick and easy about this one, and while I really did try to think of the websites I actually use and like, I just decided to go with ol’ faithful.

Wikipedia
Besides google and maybe a handful of others which I conveniently have now forgotten (Steemit only recently and due to addiction) —I really don’t like any websites that I happen to visit. And more importantly, I tend to go online only when I have to.
Google would have been a good choice but it is too broad, and really for me “internet” and “google”
at this point are almost interchangeable.
As for other “websites,” most of them I use an app for — and I feel that the interface is typically better on the app. Except for YouTube. Youtube is just utter garbage all together. I don’t want to pay to listen to music in the background on my phone, you fak-face-betch of an app —even tho I do use the much better Spotify, which I don’t consider a website but an app. And then there’s the ads, and the auto play and the ads and the region restrictions... but otherwise YouTube is not such a bad site.
And yes, I’m usually browsing from the comfort of my hand[-held device]. Which makes my experience slightly different than if I was using a laptop or desktop.

Wikipedia
...is a good way to start learning about something. Of course I never trust it one hundred percent and always try to at least look to see what the sources are if not actually checking them.
So why the tangent king? At this point it should be quite obvious. I tend to have 27 browser tabs open when using wiki. Want to learn about honey? Wiki: honey, ancient uses for honey, honey bee, wasp, bee hive, Honey Nut Cheerios, cheerio: British greeting, Great Britain. Or I could have gone done the ancient uses for honey route and ended up in ancient Egypt or the wasp, hornet route and ended up in Charlotte via Michael Jordan.
Happy wiki-ing!
