Check out Janggi (Korean Chess), our featured variant for December, 2024.
A short answer to your main question, from the front page: "This site seeks to catalog the vast number of Chess variants created throughout history, as well as to nurture the creation of new variants."
This site is not just for hobbyists and inventors of new variants, but for those who may want to find a variant to play (and often, for them to play those variants here).
The Recognized Variants are a good starting point for someone interested in variants. I think it natural then to keep its size somewhat limited.
As for a more in-depth listing, our Favorites page is a great place to look.
