Best places to get human reviews/recommendations outside of reddit? (kbin.social)

Often times when duckduckgoing (is that the right term for that) advice for products, I use the !ddgr key to directly search reddit for advice. But in a post-blackout world, I need to do this a lot less. So I want to know what the best places are to get reviews and advice for products that are human and not top 10 listicals.

A lot of the time they're niche specific, I would have found out about a lot of smaller sites from reddit and then just switched to searching them directly once I had a better understanding.

e.g. every second post in retro games subs was always "how much is this worth" and the answer is use pricecharting.com, analog camera subs or analog repair invariably reference butkus, there's heaps of small archives, wikis and old community forums out there for anything you can imagine.

If there's specific niches you're interested in maybe ask in those forums here, they might be able to point you somewhere.
