Great site and nicely curated list. But I think there is a problem with redirecting www to non-www.
I submitted an app [1] using the the Google forms that you have, after submission it takes me to www.webapphunt.co and Heroku says that no such app exists.

Can you elaborate? I've been describing https://www.findlectures.com similarly to people, and I've had a lot of positive feedback. There is some frustration from the impersonality of the poorer implemented AI recommenders.

Algorithms can "curate" things nowadays, but often do so poorly. "Hand" implies a person is doing the curation and not an algorithm. I could see people preferring a person over an algorithm.
A "curated feed" doesn't imply a human is curating the feed anymore.

Nice. I think my http://www.averageweather.io web app fits in well here, but I guess I will wait and see if it gets approved. Quick and to the point, useful web apps.

This is a great list, thanks for putting this together. As a small feature request it would be great if I could see more of the apps at once, I think infinite scroll or just more apps per page would be nice.

Personally, I dislike the phrase hand-curated.
Both are effectively becoming meaningless and set my pretentiousness detector on high alert.
One could easily describe a grocery list as a 'a thoughtfully curated selection of produce and pantry goods.'
A "curated feed" doesn't imply a human is curating the feed anymore.
