Interesting idea! There are so many great posts that otherwise get lost in the noise.

What is your main motivation for building IndieFeeds?

To get more activity onto the site, have you thought about including HN upvote counts & comments?

Good question, and I'm not sure what's the correct answer for this. Sometimes you just want to build something. I guess my main motivation was nostalgia for the times when I first discovered Internet (late 90s) and I remember it as a network of personal sites, usenet and irc :) Besides that I thought it's something people here on HN would like.
