Hello mastodon friends.I've read a couple of posts on social media recently about blog discovery being broken. I see these every now and again, but this time I thought I would try to do something to help.If you have time, please take a look at https://dev.upvote.blogThe site is in development & I'm still working on it, but you can test it out. Would it be useful, or am I wasting my time?Comments, criticism etc appreciated.

@jamie we (bloggers) NEED this! Lobsters is great, but that’s more for technical posts, and very specific ones at that.We need a highly moderated space for bloggers on all niches, not just tech, to be discovered.

@jamie Nice idea. Would be interesting to see if you could make the submission - or the comments underneath the submission - work as webmentions (https://indieweb.org/Webmention).And, as I see on your roadmap - tags (or categories) would be good.Also, maybe an option to open the link with a toolbar and without so you can quickly get back to comments / nav to the next post (attached pic)

@kev I do too, and pingbacks / trackbacks - though might be a bit beyond me. Webdev isn’t my trade so I’m winging it as I go. @matt

@jamie please consider allowing #indieauth where one can login using their own site.Since you are focusing on personal blogs, this is a match made in heaven.https://indieauth.com/

@jamie @matt me too haha. I’m sure there’s some webdevs out there that can help though.
