Minor Discover Sites issues

Feedback: love the idea, and that it doesn’t factor in personal subscriptions.

Two minor issues:

  • A site can be in its own discover recommendations (e.g. acko.net).

  • It can recommend a dead/misbehaving feed without telling you.

Thanks for the feedback! Technically the site being recommended is not the same site as the one you’re subscribed to. I debated removing those sites with the same feed title as the original feed, but people can use this to see copies of the site they’re subscribed to and determine if they want to be subscribed to a copy with a higher subscriber count or subtle differences.

As for dead feeds, that’s also possible, but sometimes it’s nice to read feeds that may no longer be publishing but have written important stories in the past.
