awesome - but it doesn't support all Top level domain names. it failed on some of my submissions
Very nice! Almost all of the traffic to https://datacrayon.com comes from HN/Reddit... I remember things being different in the GeoCities/Angelfire days. I wonder if sites like this would change that
I also wonder if Google is somehow getting worse about this. For example, I happen to know now (though I didn't know when I started the stumblingon project) that there are a couple other similar sites that exist. However, when I originally googled "Stumble Upon" and phrases like "Stumble Upon Alternative" or "Stumble Upon Clone" I never saw any of the others that do exist. Instead, it is/was mostly "Top N Stumble Upon Alternatives"-type listicles that weren't very good and would suggest things like "Facebook". Oddly, the top result, for me, for "Stumble Upon Clone" is this weird website [1] which I think is selling Stumble Upon clones, like - they will make a Stumble Upon clone for you. (Possible I'm misreading that).
Edit: another abusive link https://www.the followershop.com/ (i have broken the links to avoid any sort of SEO for them)
Needs a way to flag abuse, like https://get portal.co/earlyaccess which is just some company's product with a slick sales site. First thing I got when I clicked :( Edit: another abusive link https://www.the followershop.com/ (i have broken the links to avoid any sort of SEO for them)

Good point. I have a "like" button in the history section. I will add a "report"/"bad"/"shouldn't be here" button to that as well.
This is great! I was just thinking about StumbleUpon the other day and wishing it were still a thing. I have a whole folder full of awesome bookmarks (half of which are dead now) I found using StumbleUpon.
Thanks. A while back I was trying to find the original StumbleUpon and discovered it had become some kind of social media site, so I recreated what I remembered was the core functionality (click button, get random site).
I don't know what StumbleUpon is like now, but it was always a social media site; a major feature was the stumpleupon comments page associated with any actual page.
