  • sometimes the feed aggregator will bypass the paywall for ya 👀

    i also like that reading the articles in my feed reader doesn’t give away any tracking information. can get the same info without visiting the source website at all. and when i do open links there’s no source to show where i opened it from.

    ultimately it’s so much easier having most news sources in one place instead of subscribing to hella newsletters.





  • “the fediverse isn’t ready to take over yet” - so put time and attention into making it ready instead of trying to build something completely new. If enough businesses and public figures put their resources into getting the fediverse beefed up (or dumbed down/simplified) to where the public needs it to be to meet their needs, it could happen much sooner. And it’d be better in the long run than whatever replacement will just follow the exact same villain character arc as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter - sell more shit to you and let the app fucking break.
