I’d like to take my RSS feeds from an aggregator of news to a curated selection of interesting things. Interesting newsletters and blogs are where I think RSS shines, but I struggle to find this content.
What do you do to find these kinds of RSS feeds?
I’d go a step further and see if anyone here has recommendations for the best RSS readers. I’ve never used one, and I’m wary to take any of the ones offered in the Android play store that are going to shove ads in my face. I’d love a quick guide to set them up properly, too. I’m a luddite when it comes to this apparently because the last one I installed, I couldn’t get it to grab any of the links. EDIT: I installed Feedly and it was easy to set up. I don’t need it to do anything but grab articles I’m interested in and it seems to do that just fine. I’d just like to be able to unfollow all news/politics subs on the fediverse and stick to articles only. Thanks for the input to everyone who replied.
I used Read You from f-droid app-store and was happy with it. No commercials and FOSS. Switched to Nextxloud News for centralized RSS feeds from my Nextcloud.
+1 on Read You. For desktop, I can also recommend newsboat on Linux and NetNewsWire on MacOS.
I’ve been using Newsblur for a few years now and it’s been great. It’s very configurable. They have a hosted version or you can run your own. https://www.newsblur.com/
I’ve been using Feedly since Google Reader got killed off by Google, and it’s been great. Rarely any issues at all, and you can add whatever URLs you want, and i’ll try its best to make it into a useable feed.
I’ve been using Feedly, ever since Google Reader was shut down. I’ve been happy with it and it has discovery features to find new feeds that interest you.
