Tbh I've been working on a big feedback list since early this year after finding scour through /r/rss. This year got busy etc so I haven't sent it in yet but I'd like to soon once I polish it up. Being able to apply custom interests to all feeds globally has been a wonderful way to run into new stuff online. I was genuinely surprised how great of addition scour was to my rss setup since I'm already a longterm experienced user with a well curated follow list of a several hundred feeds.

    Hey, was checking out the site and stumbled across a small bug: head to https://scour.ing/browse/feeds/popular https://scour.ing/browse/feeds/popular while logged out, press the + button on a feed, and it breaks the browser back button. Happens on FF and Chrome.

      Thanks for the heads up! I'll get that fixed

  TBH, _I_ was also genuinely surprised when I made the initial MVP of Scour, pointed it at HN Newest, and right away was finding great posts with only 1-3 points. I thought a lot of good stuff was probably getting buried in the fire hose, but I had no idea how well it would actually work at finding those hidden gems for me.

Just created an account, added 3 of my interests pertaining to what I am working on right now; instantly found 3-4 articles that gave me actual, actionable insight on what I wanted to do. Great work!
