Could someone send me a lobste.rs invite by any chance? I’ve been a lurker for some time but would love to contribute a bit.

#64It's not like those you list as there's no voting, but I maintain https://engineeringblogs.xyz/ which is a river of links to posts on over 500 software engineering related blogs. There's an OPML file if you want to take the feeds into your own reader or you can submit feeds to add. Oh, I also run https://rubyflow.com/ which is a MetaFilter-style linklog for the Ruby community, and somehow gets a fair few posts each d…
You wouldn't happen to want to sell RubyFlow to someone who will give it the TLC it needs. I find it regularly has low quality articles (https://rubyflow.com/p/ieouvb-job-scheduling-with-resque-in-...) and often downright spam :-(

#65A couple venerable pillars: https://news.slashdot.org https://boingboing.net
Also fark.com and drudgereport.com
... and for the record, per the OP's request, these are examples of news aggregation sites, not necessarily recommendations.

Have you visited boing boing in the last few years? It’s literal cancer.
wtf is wrong with you. Do you know anyone with literal cancer? Use different words.
Language evolves. Literal clearly doesn’t just mean what literal literally meant a few decades back. It’s especially poetic when you’re using it in jest. Get over it?
Also who doesn’t know someone with cancer? 1 in 3 dies of it. Except for kids dying of brain cancer I don’t see what’s especially horrendous about it. As a matter of fact I’d much rather die of cancer than a brain aneurysm. Give me time to set my things in order?

I used to visit it regularly until about a decade ago, but I felt too many of the posts were unnecessarily getting too political.
I just checked out their website. It looks vastly different. It used to be mostly technical posts, and the logo even had a girl in overalls turning a wrench. The types of posts look like it has greatly changed over the years. I'm curious as to why I was downvoted. I understand why the other person was downvoted ("literal cancer"). Oh well.
When I visited it last time, they tried to sell me a 100 dollar virus scanner app for my iPhone [1] so yeah I wasn’t exaggerating much. I’d much rather have Hodgkins Lymphoma than that site lol.

#68https://unfeeder.com/ is pretty good.
Do you know how it works/collects the links?
As the name implies, it takes feeds and brings the best from them to surface. Every click on article links counts as vote from a unique IP address.
It's created by me. I enjoy the read view on Unfeeder for long articles. I don't longer use or need a feed reader since I created it.

heh... Years ago there was a site called "LinuxHomePage.[net?]" -- and it looked almost exactly like this, but it had content box-borders also...
I wonder if this is by the same guy... its literally identical and you could customize without an account...
