I would be much more interested in a Goodreads alternative that focuses on articles/substacks/newsletters etc.

There isn't a good way of sorting through all the stuff out there and I feel like I am missing a bunch of content worth reading as a result.

Out of curiosity how did you initially populate your site?

That's a really good idea. The only trouble would be keeping the astroturfers away, it's much easier for articles - a company I used to work for would send out company-wide requests to upvote their articles on HN.

But if someone could make this work in a way that it's like a "if you liked this you might like" version of HN/lobste.rs it could be really useful.
