Relate to this? Buy two single duvets. Saved my marriage.
Yeah but it’s free advertising on Lemmy and there’s only like ten of us here.
Yeah. I run my own FreshRSS server and use FeedMe to access it. It’s mostly just a bunch of UK newspapers and tech news sites because I realised I was getting all my news from Twitter and I wanted to cut back my use of Twitter. It’s fine. The great thing about getting my news from social media was that I’d follow a load of people with similar interests to me so I’d mostly just see articles that interested me regardless of the source. Now it takes more scrolling to get past the articles I don’t care about to find the ones I want to read. It means I get a broader overview of news that isn’t effectively curated for me, either by other people or by algorithm, but it’s not as engaging. It is the right choice though if you’re looking to see more outside of what you’re usually shown, as you say.
I downvoted the beans and I don’t care who knows about it. I’d do it again.
This is useful to know though, thanks. I guess assume everything is public short of your password (unless your admin is particularly nefarious and has altered the code to store passwords in plaintext for some reason).
