RSS is one thing I have yet to dive into. There are videos that I want to watch and channels that I want to be subscribed to but I’m disliking the constant monitoring if activity online.
Cirfsnglh on travel with AirBNBs and the smart TVs with logins feels so weird knowing what others are up to, and I don’t feel comfortable adding my recents to their lists.
Inoreader works very nicely for me. I have quite a few folders set up… Stuff I had bookmarks for, but rarely visited lately…
- Digg Top Stories (43 unread) if I get bored - at least a dozen of those will keep me entertained.
Stuff from the ‘other’ place - useful fodder to consider ‘bridging’ or just ‘copy/pasting’ over in Fediverse :P
- Reddits (e.g. Dad Jokes)
- Fediverse (https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes)
I added the Firefox extension, so if I visit Youtube - for example (open this in a PRIVATE window, not logged in) Insights from Ukraine and Russia then I can Easily add the RSS by searching in Inoreader.
Here’s Daily Dose of Internet
The beauty being that you can quickly go through all this stuff - great keyboard accessibility (90% covered with Shift J-K to go to the next/previous feed, Shift-X to toggle expansion of the folder, J - K to go (and mark read) the next/previous item (but you can ALWAYS view all articles in a thread)… all without visiting the sites.
Feedly and Inoreader are both awesome - and you can (and should regularly) export a list of your feeds as a backup/migration strategy.
Feedly is great, use it for my private RSS stuff.
At work, on macos, I use rssbot - which isn’t an RSS reader but just an … uhm … rss linker? It doesn’t feature the capability to read content but just gives you a list of links to anything new. If that’s enough for you, it’s a great app.
