I wish there were more articles about tech not tech biz (lemm.ee)

Just seems like everything is "this company did this to their employees" and less about "this novel messaging protocol offers these measured pros and cons." Or similar

And yes, I could post things, but I'm referring to what hits the top, 12h.

Can anyone rec communities with less of a biz and politics and wfh vs in-office vibe?

Blogs are really the only way now. At least in my life, it and RSS are making a big comeback. So if you know of any good blogs let me know

We need webrings to come back for better discoverability. Also, how do you consume RSS?

[–] CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bleh, consume sounds like an icky word here. But if you want to set up an RSS Feed, get an RSS reader (I personally use NewsFlash, but use whatever you like) and then simply add feeds to it. You can find them on quite a few sites, the icon looks kind of like a wifi symbol. Optionally you could also just install a plugin like Awesome RSS, which automatically finds feeds on the site you're currently on, which can be useful if it's kinda hidden on the site itself

I meant "Consume" in the technical sense of downloading and parsing. And yes, the RSS reader is part of what I was looking for (I don't think I've heard of NewsFlash, very excited to look into that).

I've been using RSS for a long time, but I find that Feedly is odious, self-hosted alternatives are unnecessarily hard to operate, and the middle ground of paid alternatives doesn't seem to exist.

RSS is awesome and it's one of those generic technologies I am talking about on my blog. I already covered RSS, PGP, FTP and F-Droid, and there are plans about SSH, git, KeePass and Delta Chat.

RSS yes. I love it.

Blogs...eh. the only time I read a blog is if it contains a solution I've searched for.
