Bubble your blog discovery
If you have not discovered Bubbles yet, then I suggest you go and have a look.
In the Bubbles Team's very own words:
Somewhere out there, someone wrote a really good blog post today. You'll probably never find it. Bubbles tries to surface it. Community voting applied to thousands of personal, independent blogs, with identity and discussion routed through the Fediverse.
I've been watching this for a few weeks now, and I am loving the simplicity, honesty, and hand curation for indi-blogs.
The team have carefully vetted thousands of independent blogs, automatically publishing new posts from these. Users can then up-vote blogs to bubble them to the surface, spreading the joy with more readers.
There's various timelines: top, new, hot, and your own list from blogs you follow (if you choose to login). All blogs are manually categorised (by humans), so you can filter results.
It's an interesting service, and I am enjoying discovering new posts, blogs, and people.

There are currently 4800+ blogs being bubbled. Here's the list -- your blog may well be on it already!
If you want to create an account to store your own bubbles you just need a Fediverse account.
UPDATE: I like it so much, I bought the dev a few coffees. I'm always keen to support independent developers.
