Now that I’ve seen the thread about what RSS feed readers people are using, what feeds are you following these days? I’ll take all recommendations.
Thanks for the links, everyone! If you’ve got a personal blog feel free to add it here. Slowly getting back into the habit of using a feed reader and curating what I read.
@mathiasx Numerous! Hard for me to decide which ones to highlight without a more specific prompt.
So save for that I'll just say most of the links I share in the mornings have webfeeds, that's how I find them! And I have a couple of my own:
https://adrian.geek.nz/docs.atom
https://adrian.geek.nz/movies.atom
https://rhapsode.adrian.geek.nz/blog.atom
here's three real fast.
feed:https://www.drugsandwires.fail/feed/
feed:https://edwardsnowden.substack.com/feed/
feed:https://computer.rip/rss.xml
if you're using firefox I'd recommend the awesomeRSS addon
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/awesome-rss/
so you can get a little icon in your addressbar to show up when it detects a site's feed.
with some fiddling you can get it to launch your feed reader program with the feed url, but it is more annoying than I'd want to explain here.
Adrian Roselli writes about accessibility, particularly Web accessibility: https://adrianroselli.com/feed
The blog of @cadey: https://xeiaso.net/blog.atom
Cory Doctorow's blog: https://pluralistic.net/feed/
The Dolphin Wii emulator has great technical deep dives: https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/feeds/
Blog of @cks: https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/?atombut
Heydon's somewhat satirical blog that often covers accessibility: https://heydonworks.com/feed.xml
Blog of @sadness@yesterweb.org ranges from the YesterWeb movement to introspective book reviews: https://sadgrl.online/feed.xml
The mango zone has gotten multiple laughs out of me: https://mango.pdf.zone/feed.xml
I list three feeds on my homepage: https://seirdy.one/ 🥺
Most software forges also have RSS and/or Atom feeds for tags/releases and commits. Every Reddit search and YouTube channel also had a feed.
Most Fediverse servers publish per-user feeds.
Might reply with more later
@mathiasx@mastodon.xyz the recent changes pages of mediawiki websites i contribute to, LOL
https://tmp.bvnf.space/sfeedrc
This is my sfeedrc, slightly edited. There are 39 feeds there (in alphabetical order), nearly all personal techy blogs.
I use this script: https://tmp.bvnf.space/startpage.sh to generate this page: https://tmp.bvnf.space/start.html to view recent posts.
@mathiasx
The script runs in a cronjob every couple of hours to update it.
@mathiasx I still have lots of feeds on those subjects, but narrowing down to a handful:
https://vale.dev/rss.xml
https://www.haskellforall.com/feeds/posts/default
https://raphlinus.github.io/feed.xml
https://michael-lewis.com/index.xml
https://ijdykeman.github.io/feed.xml
https://www.hanshq.net/feed.rss
http://research.swtch.com/feed.atom
https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/feeds/all.atom.xml
http://ajroach42.com/feed.xml
@mathiasx http://sigusr2.net but apparently My feed is broken! Whee!
@apg let me know when it is fixed since my feed reader is refusing to even save a broken feed URL 🤷🏽♂️
I should’ve given some ideas of what I’m looking for feeds for, so here goes: tech folks’ personal blogs, creating programming languages, learning programming languages, writing Forth or Lisp or similar, retro-computing, low tech solutions to sustainability.
Thanks in advance!
