How do you follow news on tech and stay upto date?
What are your go to resources including HN and best ways to stay updated (I am on iOS) I use NetNewsWire, an RSS reader on iOS and macOS. Ars Technica is the main tech news site I follow in there, but also follow a few dev blogs. I find if I have too many general purpose tech news sites there is a lot of duplication of big stories, and the volume becomes overwhelming to the point I give up. So I try and keep it simple. HN fills in some gaps, and I figure if a story is big/important enough, I’ll hear about it eventually. I couldn't agree more with you. It does indeed get overwhelming. I was following twitter a lot but I eventually get lost in the swarm over there. Any recommended dev blogs? I use RSS for as much as possible (it’s how I found this post). On iOS/Mac I use the Reeder 5 app. I’ve tried dozens of RSS apps and found its UX to be the best, by far. I use RSS for HackerNews[1], Reddit, YouTube, and Substack. Thanks! hnrss is awesome, i didn't now about this before. Any recommendations on YouTube / Substack? graymirror.substack.com What is your preset for HN feed? Hacker News I subscribe to the pragmaticengineer and check HN every now and then sign up to various newsletters with work email
add rss feeds to work outlook (outlook has it built in) I find that by using work email not personal, more likely to look at it.
