1 year agoPart of my rexxit so far has included me dusting off newsreaders and rss feeds again.
Im trying to find a good set up. Newsblur seems to be a front runner. I have nextcloud selfhosted, so I could use that with the $2.99 android app or I could pay for newsblur or feedly a few bucks each month.
Either way, having a self-curated feed of news these last few days has been pretty amazing. There is no algorithm tuned for engagement pumping news in my face. It’s just stories, articles, YouTube videos, and podcasts that I want to see (on my terms).
It’s not something is recommend if you are a big gamer. Windows is still king there. Linux is making a ton of progress but if you want a gaming machine do windows.
That said Macs with the new silicon and unified memory absolutely crush in a ton of areas. I run an AI job that takes 45s-120s on my Mac air m1 and 5m in my Nvidia gfx card and 10m-12m on my Ryzen cpu.
