as in, the sites you always type unconsciously and hover on throughout the day. ideally something more beneficial than this
Good question… as I open up lemmy for the 70th time today.
Better than Reddit at least
Find a RSS aggregator that you like and add the RSS feeds of websites you enjoy going to. I’m assuming most have the ability to search websites based off topics to help you get started.
The feed will show you every update those websites makes automatically.
There’s no comments or frivolous things. Just headlines, images and text of the webpage.
It’s a nice reprieve from social media.
Fark.com is a really great news agitator and community
It’s similar but different to Lemmy and Reddit in many significant and interesting ways
Me too. After years away, I poked in on it. It was a Saturday, and the Caturday thread looked just like the last one I had seen, many years before. Seemed strange.
news agitator
I feel like that was autocorrect, but it’s hilarious.
There was also slashdot back in the day, although I haven’t checked it out in a while.
News for nerds. Stuff that matters.
Hackernews is still great and there’s an app (Harmonic).
Pornhub
But the last time I actually looked up a porn performer who seemed cool, it turned out she was a raging transphobe who would want to kill half my housemates. :(
Never meet your heroes
Holy shit!!
You are the modern day “I read Playboy magazine for the articles”.
Hackaday.com is great if you are into hobbyist electronics! I also spend a lot of time on YouTube.
Hacker news
Telegram.
I know I am an apologist, but there’re many good groups of simple news and knowledge but also goot groups of trading and discussion.
Also it’s one of the last bastions of freedom. Especially loved by people in repressed countries.
How do you find groups you might like?
Either by word-of-mouth, or the indexers of groups.
Like https://telegramchannels.me/groups
Most of mine are local-only groups for smallads or zigbee/smarthome-discussion
telegram is social media.
It has social-media-features nowadays. But in its core it’s just a messenger
Discord is where i went. It’s annoying that it’s less indexable, but that’s also protected it from malicious advertising.
YouTube, I learn quite a bit there. Also Discord, and lemmy
For me, MetaFilter, ResetEra, Tildes, and Feedly (RSS reader).
neal.fun
Current events portal, recent deaths portal, and the on this day portal on the Wikipedia.
