I built a site to find the best newsletters
Hey HN, sharing something I've been working on. I love reading new voices. I subscribe to a lot of brilliant newsletters but found it hard to keep track of all the great stuff I was reading. I'd read something, love it, never be able to find it again. And then, how do you find new ones worth trying? And which posts do you start with? With Inbox World, you can submit and upvote the best of Substack and other similar platforms. The goal is to build a community around the best independent writing out there. It's like HN for newsletters! This is a passion project for me and I'm not technical at…
I built a site to find the best newsletters launched on February 4, 2022 with 12 votes, #1,041 of 2,645 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.
In plain words
Inbox World is a community platform for discovering and sharing the best newsletters from Substack and similar platforms. Users can submit newsletters and posts, upvote their favorites, and browse what the community recommends. The site functions as a central directory for independent writing, helping readers find new voices and rediscover content they've enjoyed. It includes a weekly email digest of the most popular recommendations and requires no login or account creation.

Hello InboxAug 2026 · helloinbox.email · ▲283Hey HN, I built an email deliverability SaaS with a RAG system. It's trained on all my knowledge and hundreds of real deliverability use cases from 4+ years experience as an Email Deliverability Specialist on Upwork. It solves a frustration problem a lot of businesses are experiencing. I'm looking for feedback so let me know in the comments.
A better way to read blogs2023 · boredreading.com · ▲103Hey HN, maker here. It was a serious 4-6 months of effort to build this. I have never poured as much love, attention and detail into a project before. So I really appreciate you having a looksie! The homepage has a fresh list of articles every hour and is open to all. Still, I recommend signing up so you can add stuff to your reading list and follow blogs. My initial plan was to monetize this with subtle ads, but that didn't work out as the traffic to the site isn't nearly enough for that. That said, I have a fair bit invested in this and I need your help figuring out a way to make this…
I asked an HN member for feedback and she blew my mind2010 · slideshare.net · ▲453A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!
Pagecord2024 · pagecord.com · ▲122Hey HN I’ve been at a loose end for the past few days so I decided to build a thing. I’m largely devoid of original ideas so I built a (micro-) blogging app with a slight twist: you run it using email. All you need is an email account. No new tools to wrangle. No password to forget. Compose in your favourite email editor and send to a secret address. Pagecord does the rest. It's great for bloggy long-form writing, but it’s maybe even more fun for micro-blogging your thoughts as you would a Twitter feed (you can subscribe to people/blogs using RSS). I figured nobody would pay so it's…
