I really like the idea! At some point I put up a miniflux instance and it has surprisingly been a breath of fresh air for my content consumption. What miniflux and my setup lacks is a way to retrieve stuff I read and this OpenOrb might fit the use case... I will try it out!

What do you mean by "retrieve stuff I read"?
Tangentially on this note, if anyone is interested, I can produce a list of every RSS feed known to the marginalia search crawler. It's a pretty noisy list, but any thing I can do to help the spread, discovery and adoption of RSS I'm happy to help with so just let me know. I a tool in place to export this data to help power the experimental RSS preview feature[1], but haven't had the inspiration to do much with that…
[edit] I mean, to have it closer to what OP showed.
Nice! I was thinking about the same kind of tool a while back, and developed a community-based curated feed reader with full-text search. It's not public yet (sign ups are behind an invitation code), but search works for guests: https://minifeed.net/global
Earlier quoted context omitted.

sometimes I stumble into stuff I’m sure I’ve already read something about in an article but if I didn’t bookmarked or made a note of it it’s very hard to find again (miniflux flushes content after a certain age)
When I search for "history" it returned only technical articles, and heavily favored dan luus website.
Are technical blogs the primary focus?

This is super nice, and it looks like it's going to have some really great features, well beyond OpenOrb's! Excited to keep an eye on this.
- full text search across all blogs (implemented) and across blogs user subscribed to (planned)
- subscribing to users to see the blogs they follow in your "friendfeed" (implemented)
- favorites, with contents saved to permanent storage (implemented)
- custom lists of blogs and posts (planned)
- comments (not sure about this one yet)
This is a cool idea. When I search for "history" it returned only technical articles, and heavily favored dan luus website. Are technical blogs the primary focus?
But you can deploy your own instance and add any blogs you want.
