You've not said what platform you primarily work with but if you use MacOS/iOS then I can highly recommend DevonTHINK.

I installed one of these at home. Absolutely superb.
I recall using Stumbleupon quite a bit to find random sites.

I think there always has been some sort of 'social' for site discovery (Fark/Slashdot etc), it was just more diverse than it is now.

Thunderbird works really well as an RSS reader. It's only because I read my feeds on multiple devices that I use a hosted service.

I like NewsBlur. The site training system is very effective at filtering out stuff that I don’t want to see and it has reasonable mobile apps for both android and iOS.

It’s probably one of the more expensive of the hosted options though.
