This is a great initiative. Feeds need to be promoted with the wider public, or they will gradually and silently disappear.

Really like your starter packs.

> Are you sick of big websites trying to decide what you should see, despite what you’ve subscribed to? Sick of "the algorithm" shuffling what order you get told of things, if at all?

Most people nowadays consume news from social media (Facebook), and are not truly aware of the issues that arise from this (filter bubble, echo chamber, targeting, etc.). This could be explained better on the front page, or even have a sub-page with more detail and examples. Increase the incentive to use feeds.

Lastly, you present yourself as a not-for-profit initiative. But your About and whole site does not mention who you are. Be transparent.

If non-profit, you could be open-source as well. Have a crowdsourced place where people submit and improve starter packs.

(If I have overlooked something, then I stand corrected)

Edit: I just shared your link, on LI, and you seem to lack an open graph image (og:image) to be added to the link preview.
