Thanks for the recommendations. Bleepingcomputer is a website I've been following for a while too. Great source of information.

Scrolling through that pudding site, right away I notice the tell tale sign of midwit misconception. - a story makes claims about women in the news, without any controls or comparison to men (i.e. it's useless) - a story presents one of those toy economic models about random trades between people, not realizing they are complete nonsense with zero predictive power This is just what I notice on a first visit. It's ext…

Lol are you really complaining about the veracity of a site with the headline “every time someone says ‘cool’ in community”?

They’re cute little stories with decent presentation, not the economist.

I built my own RSS feed reader web app. The difference is that it proxies the HTML of the article page, transforms it (e.g. removes advertising, adds custom styling/scripts) so that I can view the original article but with modifications to the website. I have other features like headline filters and the ability to load non-feed pages like the NYTimes home page as a feed item.

The feeds themselves are mostly random subreddits, Hypebeast, some NYTimes sections, etc.

It works a lot better than manually going to each website and browsing around looking for new content.

Do you just spend all your time reading stuff?

Aggregating these frees me to forget about them in the rest of my life. When I scroll to the end of the timeline it actually stops, with no distractions; I reach “the end of the internet” every day.

Yeah, I use my own opinionated feed reader, too. I’ve also structured it so that others can use it, too. lenns.io - the top feature for me is setting different priorities per source or category.

The only other news I consume is via AllSides: https://www.allsides.com/unbiased-balanced-news

They take a headline and present an article from different 3 news sources. The 3 sources will include left leaning, right leaning and more neutral new organizations so you get a perspective from all sides.
