It's also like HN, aggregating the best videos from YouTube.

FS blog and podcast have some really interesting material.

I like their weekly newsletter. It gives me a good recap. To be honest, I have grown tired of the news under the stay at home order.

Most of my free time now has been back out in the garden now that Spring is in full boom. I build a replacement raised bed last year.

Any tips on getting started with Discord?

> So I'm looking for other fun yet informative places to kill some downtime.

I usually try to use my downtime for personal development. In particular, I read books about programming/cs topics that interest me. Recently that has been Forth. I also try to exercise at least four times a week for an hour or more each session. Beyond that, I try to indulge my hobbies. This week I have been scanning my old film negatives.

I get an interesting article emailed to me every day from Thinking About Things [0], so I use that to go down some rabbit hole.
