Awesome. I have a project with a similar tik-tok-esque philosophy for serving all sorts of noncommercial content from the web. The interface is one button and a random page is embedded in an iframe. I use random wikipedia pages as a fallback in case my algorithm returns a dead page.

I call it moonjump: https://moonjump.app/

Pretty nice! Reminds me of StumbleUpon.

Yeah, pretty similar to StumbleUpon. Right now the links are sourced from a handful of are.na channels and some other collections of content. I plan on warehousing this data and tagging it such that users can configure categories of sites that they'd like to stumble upon. HN submissions are mixed into the algorithm as well.
