    TBH There should be more RSS feeds and more work around them (RSS readers are still good tho) so that news are delivered without paywalls and in a user friendly way

      I’ve been getting back on the RSS train in the past year or two, after dropping off when I started getting all of my news on Twitter. After that was proven to be a terrible idea, I discovered that my Feedly account was still there waiting for me. I’ll be self-hosting something else soon, but my post-Twitter, federated, RSS-driven media consumption has so far given me a lot more control.

        Feedly has been amazing. I’ve got a little RasPi 4 server here; what service are you going to self-host as an alternative?

          I’m considering Miniflux, though I don’t know if I agree with some of their opinions. The jury is out.

          I like Feedly fine, but the fact that I can’t use their app without having an ad presented as a piece of content I requested is beyond the pale for me and the website is a little too jank to use on mobile even with uBO.
