## Story 003: Discover other people's pages

**Persona:** Alex, 19, a digital artist. They are bored and curious about what other people are doing online. They like stumbling across weird, interesting personal sites.

**Situation:**

Alex signed up and made their own page, but now wants to see what else is out there. They don't know any specific usernames to visit.

**Need:**

As Alex, I want to browse or discover other people's pages without knowing their usernames, so that I can find new creators and get inspiration.

**Acceptance:**
- There is a discovery mechanism (recent activity feed, directory, webring, or combination)
- I can find at least 3-5 other active pages without much friction
- I can click through to someone else's page and read it
- It feels serendipitous, not algorithmic — I trust what I'm finding

**Tier:** core

**Confusion-flags:**
- The directive leaves this open ('your call'). Do we do a reverse-chronological activity feed (newest pages first, or most-recently-updated)? A tagged directory (users tag their pages)? A webring where people opt in? These have very different vibes.
- Is discovery opt-in or opt-out? If opt-out, new users are discoverable by default; if opt-in, some pages stay hidden.
- Does discovery show private pages? The directive says 'public by default' — I assume we're not listing private ones, but I'm not certain.
