I’ve been trying to lean back into using RSS again after realizing I shouldn’t let the algorithms decide what I see. What RSS feeds do you people follow and why? Any recommendations? Do you tend to follow the RSS feeds of Lemmy as well?

A bunch of software development blogs that I’ve collected (~40). I’d love to share a list but I can’t find an easy way to export them from Feedly :(
Related: what are the best rss readers out there? I’ve been mostly happy with Feedly but I’d really like something that is:
- FOSS
- No login/account, all data local
- Android app
- Follow RSS feeds, sort into categories
- Save for later
- Save favourites
- Tag categories
- Import/export subscriptions
- Read full text locally in the app (don’t need to open the website)
- Supports text to speech
I keep track of a bunch of subreddits that dont exist here.
That said, its really getting bad for bots there. Even formerly tightly regulated ones like space are bot trash now.
I suggest you add an RSS feed detector to your browser so that you know if the page/site you’re viewing has an RSS feed.
Grab them as you go.
A whole bunch, including one that contains this very post. Currently using Feedbro in Firefox.
The eclipsing of RSS by corporate social media is such a tragedy. Obviously there are a number of causes but my personal pet peeve is the name itself. What terrible judgement to brand the thing “RSS”! Only a bunch of out-of-touch geeks could have not foreseen that this awful jargony acronym would strike most people as impossibly technical and foreboding.
It should have been called “webfeed”, which is what it is.
nowadays sites usually dont provide rss, so you need something to convert webpage to rss, like rssbrige or rsshub, even rssproxy sometimes. rsshub & rssbrige also have categories/catalogs you can check if anything interests you. i wouldnt suggest follow forums with rss, because they tend to update very frequently essentially overwhelm your feeds, but i followed several cat related just for fun.

Yeah, I’ve been using OpenRSS to get the RSS feed of e.g. APNews, but it’s such a sad state of affairs that it feels like RSS is disappearing
I’m interested too (I have a teader, but no feeds), what about a community for sharing RSS feeds?
Cool idea!

The most productive one is hackaday.
Webcomics.
Disappointingly, a lot of good webcomics use Instagram or Twitter and don’t have RSS access.
List of my own saved posts and comments.
I haven’t used RSS since once a long time ago when I confused it for CSS when I was trying to figure out how to change a website I didn’t control’s layout automatically in my browser.
