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?

That’s pretty standard behavior of RSS feeds nowadays, unfortunately. It makes sense; if you don’t actually go to their website they don’t make any money from ad views. How else are they supposed to pay the bills?

There are some RSS apps that will actually go and fetch the text from the website for you but that’s usually a subscription service, and it may or may not look pretty depending on how the website is formatted.

Cool story I guess? Most writers and journalists need to eat.
