Your RSS feeds - Lemmy.world

So I set up TT-RSS the other day and it’s generally nice, the only problem is I’m trying to find feeds that are interesting more or less. For example, we all enjoy watching TV, right? So I took the TV OPML from awesome-rss-feeds on GH and applied it, and was not amused. I don’t watch that many television and I very quickly realized that none of the content in those feeds applies to me at all, so I removed it. Basically, where are the amateur hour feeds? 😅

I use www.talkwalker.com/alerts to setup notifications via RSS on keywords that are interesting to me.

I guess it all depends on what you find interesting. I have the brief extension installed on my browser and whenever I find blogs or people I enjoy if they have an atom/rss feed I subscribe. Over the years you find lots of content.

Some of the random sites I follow:

Don’t forget that TT-RSS can filter articles for you. Say, for example, that your TV feed had a sci-fi category, and you only wanted to see that. TT-RSS can mark everything else as read (or deleted) so you only see that.

Useful for ‘firehose’ type feeds where you are only interested in a specific subject.

Look into rss-bridge, spinning it up in docker is a doddle and it lets you turn stuff without a rss feed into rss feeds. Since logging out from reddit I use it to keep track of obscure subreddits in a way more controlled fashion, plus, no doomscrolling or supporting spez. There’s a whole bunch of other bridges to explore. You can also convince You-tube to give you a feed instead of following there (even without rss-bridge).
