I’m trying to dive deeper into RSS but I’m so tired of these clickbait or super corporate sites that I don’t know what’s good anymore.
I just started getting into baking and self hosting; would love to read people’s blogs but I don’t even know where to even look for that.
As a sys admin I can easily find solutions to my problems by searching and researching online but when it comes to other topics… I suck at it and don’t get what I’m looking for.
So, I agree what gets talked about on here and thought it would be easier to get recommendations by all you cool folks.
I usually put newspapers and a couple sports team blogs
RSS is by far the best way to read a newspaper imo
I just follow peoples personal blogs, no substacks or newsletters
People who are in it just to share cool stuff, not to build a ”community” to suck money out of.
That’s part of my problem is that I can’t find good personal blogs to follow.
What self-hosted RSS reader can you recommend?
TinyTinyRSS on the home server with a FreshAPI plugin and Read You app on Android.
Miniflux
Freshrss to host with RSS-bridges for various things, with feedme as an android app front end
Feeder on android is my jam
baking and self hosting
Good luck with that, I’m pretty sure those popular topics have been filled with slop a long time ago, and I have no sources to share. Maybe find something in the “small web” movement?
Here is what I found on the web (it may or may not be broken since I don’t self-host myself):

The RSS feeds I have are focused on my job:

- Tech : InfoQ, Bruce Schneier, Eli Bendersky, Fabien Sanglard, the Kotlin, Rust and Go blogs.
- and Music for programming which is a great site with free ambient music for coding sessions.
