Suggestion: If you want to curate your news intake and, like me, find the perspective of individual journalists interesting, you can check the journa.host local timeline periodically. Great way to find specialized journalists you might even want to follow. cc @adamdavidson

Android users...
If you are using the Fedilab app, go to Reorder Timeline and click the plus sign. This will let you add a new timeline in the app from any server.

Don't know why I didn't think of doing this with journa.host. Thanks for the tip.

Also for Fedilab users on Android: The app is free and open source software. You don't have to pay the Play Store for it. Instead, head over to https://f-droid.org/ to get it for free. (Also grab the ntfy app to get notifications working.) For me, Fedilab has had the best Mastodon experience so far.

@OwenK Is there a way to do this in a Chrome browser too?

@loisparshley The easiest way to get #Fedilab for free is to download and install the #FDroid app (which involves downloading the APK file from a web browser like Chrome and installing it). Then F-Droid can basically be an additional Play Store -- but specifically for managing free/open source apps. Then you can just install Fedilab and ntfy from there.
