Curated discovery is one of biggest gripes with modern platforms like youtube - discovering something truly new and outside of your normal interests is really difficult, and the same goes for the web. If you have a topic you want to explore it's fine, but finding random things you'd never have thought of yourself is much harder.
- oystersareyum 7mo agoStumble upon led to most of my interests in life, so happy for this
- Uncle_Clark 7mo agoSame. Curated content narrows the scope of discovery to find meaningful things. I always look for a way to turn off that "feature." Very cool!
- rando77 7mo agoI've thought of a service that scans new websites and GitHub repos and looks for things that don't look like anything else (using something like hdbscan for outlier detection), and creates a feed for people to follow.
