I completely agree with you. Discovery still seems to be the hardest problem to solve.

I, as a blog owner, I decided that the best way to contribute solve this problem comes in two ways:

1) By linking more to external sites and talk about websites I like and push for more networking to take place rather than only linking internally to generate more traffic

2) I created https://theforest.link/ as a way to bring back some of the fun in the way we explore the web.

These two won’t obviously solve the problem altogether but I think if more people try their best to spread the word about content worth consuming we can solve the discovery issue without inventing a separate discovery platform.

Also, we should bring back blogrolls
