Love it, but have a bug to report. When the first stumble site is displayed and you try to like it and you are then asked to sign up, you can’t go back an save to your likes! It was such an awesome site and it’s lost forever! I even tried to copy the url for later and just got a different stumble. Seems you overlooked this, maybe?
@lucky_jeffman Thanks Jeff for the report! Will add this to my list and fix this. 😬
PS: if you remember the title or parts of the url of the site, send it to me via twitter or email and I will search for it.

It was the New Yorker site, but then I made an account and kept going and looked so many cool sites and now I don’t remember 😂
Hi Producthunt!
Months ago I started searching for sites which were like the old, beloved StumbleUpon: discover random, great websites from around the internet. There are many, but none of them offered the same community-like feeling like StumbleUpon did, mostly because there is no way to submit your own site. In this time Stumbled was born.
I worked on the site for the last months, some weeks more and some less. I collected the best websites I could find to build a solid base for others to spend a night hitting the "next site" button. And today I present you the first official version of Stumbled. 🥳
The site's main feature is the stumbling: hit the "next site" button and Stumble will present you a random website from the pool. If possible, it will be shown directly as an iFrame, otherwise you get a title and description together with a link. If you sign up (either with email or social accounts), you can like websites you found. Also, you are able to submit new websites. Those will be reviewed before they are available on Stumbled.
There are no regular banner ads on the site, only textual affiliate links. Privacy is important, I do not track users; the used analytics is a cookie-less solution that does not store personal information about the users.
In the future, there will be more social features like public user profiles. I also thought about achievements and user-related statistics.
But for now: happy stumbling! Might Stumble keep you awake all night. 😬
@harsh_gelda Awesome! Great that you found so many websites you liked.

I used to be a huge fan of Stumbled Upon which is why I'm grateful to @kovah_kvh for creating Stumbled.
The mobile experience isn't great as there are many curated suggestions that just don't display within the Stumbled interface. I've had the following message appear a number of times : "Unfortunately, Stumbled is not allowed display this site directly, but it's worth to check out!" (note: this sentence may need to be redrafted to read "it's worth checking out")
The websites and articles that I was offered by Stumbled were great although many tended to be fairly geeky or technical rather than showing something quirky or creative.
I also found that on a few times when I clicked the NEXT button, the page didn't load at all. When I select the info link under the url display, I filled out the error report form provides. I suggest changing some of the options in the drop down list. For example, I'm asked whether a site is active but not working within Stumbled. This question proposes that the user has to check to see if the site is actually working when loaded from a browser (I.e. Outside of Stumbled) which is a bit of a hassle and should be tested at the developer side rather than by users.
All in all, I think that Stumbled is off to a very promising start and I'll be bookmarking it to use when I'm in procrastination mode!
@rax_lakhani Thank you so much for your honest feedback! Glad oyu like the site. I will adress the mentioned issues in the next days and hopefully I find a good solution.
@daddyallen740 I wouldn't call it a ripoff, but rather a reincarnation. I still can't believe that StumbleUpon was killed after its aquisition. It was literally the greatest website to discover stuff. Stumbled reinitiates the idea without the bloat adn weird marketing and montearization stuff similar websites have.

@kovah_kvh I can agree that your response is about as honest and good intentioned as I can hope for. I can also agree your points are valid about SU and this running its replacement, I too... was sad for it to go.
