Posts about Blogrolls (RSS, JSON)

— Speaking of Matt Webb, his blogroll is an absolute treasure trove.

Back in the old days, many blogs had a blogroll listing links to other blogs the author followed. Blogrolls were the way to discover new blogs and rediscover old ones. With the arrival of Tumblr, Medium, and Substack, which mostly replaced publishing on self-hosted and self-built websites, blogrolls disappeared almost completely.

But there’s hope. Matt’s blogroll lists more than 200 blogs, most with RSS feeds, including many old gems I had forgotten and many I had not yet heard of before.
