It’s always good to be in control of your own content sources.

      How come?

      I get the top hacker news from an RSS feed (https://hnrss.github.io/), individual blogs, YouTube channels, twitter accounts (getting the RSS feeds from nitter), etc

      Most websites will have RSS hidden underneath.

        the biggest thing that I would use it for would be individual blogs, I just only have 3 or 4 of those that I follow.

        For the others, it doesn’t help me that much to centralize them. Like with the hacker news rss feed, I can’t comment or interact from the rss reader, so I might as well use the website. With twitter, all of my twitter follows are already centralized on twitter; same with youtube, reddit, or lemmy – they already have feeds, and I can’t interact from my feedreader.

    I miss Google Reader. Is there anything like that now? Also, can anyone recommend an Android app for RSS?

      I am using FeedMe on Android, and FreshRSS (RSS Aggregator) in Docker on a Raspberry Pi.
