I too remember StumbleUpon fondly. Now I feel like it's a way to get people to go to questionable sites, but back then it was a lot of fun.

I wonder if this is due to the format or strictly because of the time?

It wasn't completely randomized though if I recall, people used to submit sites to it and would tag it in different categories and then when you signed up you would select your interests and then it would choose things from the possible options.

I think it was partly the time and partly the community. The format probably didn’t have much to do with it.
