Thank you. Categories are a good idea. One category I've thought about is videos as a few people submit those and I've been rejecting them because they don't seem like webpages. Putting them in their own category might solve that though.
As far as upvotes, there is currently a heart button you can click next to the website on the history section. Not very discoverable (looking at the metrics about 1 stumble in a thousand is getting a heart).
Right now the hearts don't do anything but serve as a reminder for a user that they liked a page. I've thought about possibilities to incorporate that into the algorithm (e.g. more likely to get websites that have higher like rates) and having a leaderboard is a good idea too, though I worry that it would give an incentive to manipulate the like buttons. Creating a new user right now is as easy as just generating a random string, so a bad actor could easily cause infinite likes to a page.
- dorchadas 6y agoIf you could implement categories, I think this could be almost perfect. I've found that's what I really miss about StumbleUpon. Being able to randomly stumble upon things from a variety of categories that interested me was really great. Found plenty of awesome things through there my freshmen year of college.
