StumbleUpon stopped working on June 30

Sadly, any fun party is at times and StumbleUpon is no exception. In Medium, co-founder StumbleUpon Garrett Camp explains why this is the right time to stop StumbleUpon. Accordingly, Camp and colleagues think StumbleUpon is only a trace of the past, when simplicity still dominates. But now users want more.

The online world is still coming and the old ones are forced to leave behind

Camp hopes StumbleUpon loyal users (currently more than 40 million people) will switch to Mix, the new platform that is similar to Pinterest, collect articles on all topics.

Closed on June 30, the current accounts on StumbleUpon will be transferred to Mix in the next month. With just a few clicks, users can transfer pages they like, bookmarks . to new pages.
