• After more than 20 years, I published my first dirty project

  I also use it for its Popular Bookmarks - I subscribed to its RSS feed in NewsBlur and always have something interesting to read when my other feeds are Empty (they rarely are). - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Killed by Google

  There's a bunch of replacements. I like https://newsblur.com but there are 4-6 large-ish similar sites. That said, partially what people miss is the relative cultural hegemony of Google Reader. It was RSS front-and-center, prominently featured on websites, supported by the biggest company in tech, with all the users there and able to take advantage of the (sparse) social features. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Alternatives to Reddit

  Https://newsblur.com/ I think this might be pretty close to what you're looking for. It's an RSS feed reader with a platform for discussions. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• With Reddit sunsetting, I'm looking back to RSS. What are the best current tools?

  Currently I'm on Newsblur. But it's really convoluted to Self host - to my "shame" I use their cloud hosted app with premium. It's (over)laden with features that I actually use and cheaper than for example Feedly. Source: 11 months ago

• Ask HN: What other news feeds do you read besides Hacker News?

  I start every day with RSS subscriptions using NewsBlur (https://newsblur.com) and Reeder (https://reederapp.com). I've also set up a page so other people can see my subscriptions / what I'm reading: https://sources.werd.io. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: How to Make News Aggregation Work in 2024?

  No clue, because the general quality and incentives of the news business is so terrible. I enjoy Techmeme[1] and sumi.news[2], though. 1. https://techmeme.com/river 2. https://sumi.news. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Ask HN: How do you get important news faster? Do you care about it?

  Two things I read: https://sumi.news/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events Just for a quick sweep. Then I open Twitter/X and browse to my local news site. This takes at most 5 minutes to skim world (and local) events and catch up. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Is there a site similar to Hacker News, but for "General News"?

  Sumi News[0] is a good non-biased sweep of current events, aswell as Wikipedia's current events page[1] [0] https://sumi.news/ [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: How do you discover new things on the internet in 2023?

  Https://www.producthunt.com/ (For new SaaS products and interesting books) https://sumi.news/ (One quick sweep of current events) https://pinboard.in/popular (Everything that is trending on the web) And of course, Hackernews (I regularly browse /newest when I am feeling serendipitous). - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Flat world news, like NYT HN

  This is the second time I've mentioned it today, but https://sumi.news might fit the bill. It is run by a HNer, although I can't remember their username offhand. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
