Ah, even more reason for me to use less Youtube.

Been substituting it with Nebula, Odysee, and just watching less video content.

@BombOmOm @furycd001
I am sort of in a content slump right now. The YouTube adblocker blocker has me watching much less and noticing the content actually kinda sucks.

Most news sites are either paywalled or adblocked blocked or so stuffed with ads it's unreadable.

Even my library app doesn't have books newer than like 2019.

This DRM shit totally sucks.

I am in a similar situation. I did just start using RSS and that has been interesting. Nice to get everything in one spot, with no ads, and it's specifically what I'm interested in.

@H3L1X
It would be nice if RSS feeds were easier to discover. I think people feel that no one uses them anymore and doesn't bother to put it front and center or to make lists of good feeds to follow.

That is very true. This page is a good starting point: https://github.com/plenaryapp/awesome-rss-feeds. It has some interesting feeds, but it is very hard to find things "in the wild" now.

@H3L1X
