    This is going to sound like it makes everything more complicated but keep in mind this saves you the trouble of checking everything, instead it all gets put in one timeline.

    A lot of it is used to give me manageable way to scrape parts of social media websites without worrying about accounts or bans or whatever, youtube/reddit/tumblr/substack/wordpress/x (via random nitter instance. this gets traffic heavy so I advise using farside.link or twiiit.com/ (username) /rss to split it up between multiple instances and don't refresh too often).

    But I've realized almost every site I actually want to visit updates pretty regularly & has an rss feed.

    The reader apps and sites on mobile are pretty bad. I'm still on old ios device most of the time so I use NetNewsWire, but it takes some getting used to & remembering to make OPML files out of lists of feeds (you just export them as a file them import it back it's not a big deal), swapping them out, or using folders, otherwise it's just spaghetti. Now that I'm used to it I can't operate without it lol. It gives you a completely open source way of adding push notifications to stuff. And it saves a ton of text offline so you can quickly search thru the customized feed you've accumulated.

    FluentReader on Windows is very nice looking and shows images & plenty of text well, the expanded view is great, but hard to do anything other than dump in a whole OPML file & wipe it the customization is so bad. Didn't see notifications.

    I don't even bother with nitter rss on mobile, i use nitter.cz/ibnriad,eyesonsouth1 to give you a quick example.
