Idea

A centralized hub that surfaces recent posts from independent bloggers across categories, helping readers discover quality writing outside social media and algorithmic feeds. Perfect for people who want to support the indie web and find niche voices.

Why this is interesting

The "indie web" and RSS revival conversation has been real since Twitter's 2023 implosion pushed writers toward Substack and personal domains, but that same migration means readers are already consolidating around Substack's own discovery features and newsletter aggregators like Paved. The closest incumbent is actually Feedly, which has spent a decade solving this exact problem with more resources than any indie hacker can match. A $200–1.5k/mo revenue ceiling is honest but brutal — ads won't work at low traffic, subscriptions require a loyal base that's hard to build when the core product is essentially pointing people away from your site, and affiliate angles are thin. The most likely failure mode is a cold-start problem that never resolves: bloggers don't submit unless readers are there, readers don't come unless there's content worth discovering, and without a strong SEO or community hook there's no forcing function to break the deadlock.
