The Challenge
Modern internet browsing has become dominated by algorithmic feeds that keep users trapped in filter bubbles, doom-scrolling through endless content optimized for engagement rather than genuine discovery. The original magic of stumbling upon unexpected, delightful corners of the internet had been lost.
I wanted to bring back that sense of serendipity—the joy of discovering something you never knew you were looking for. The challenge was creating a platform that felt spontaneous and exciting while still being fast, intuitive, and safe.
The Solution
Stumbleable is a modern web discovery platform that puts serendipity first. With a single click (or press of the spacebar), users are transported to curated content from across the internet. No algorithms deciding what you should see—just pure, delightful discovery.
The platform features instant reactions (like, skip, save), adjustable “wildness” controls to set how adventurous your discoveries should be, and community-curated lists for exploring themed content trails. Everything is designed for speed: keyboard shortcuts, instant loading, and zero friction between you and the next discovery.
