One more vote for ChatGPT. I use it all the time to get me pointed in the right direction, or to start fleshing out an algorithm. It’s a great starting place.

Go chiefs! I’m from KC so it’s cool to see a community on lemmy—and I had no idea it existed until right now.

I feel the exact same way my friend. Even when lemmy was on the rise (when I joined), I knew that it wasn’t going to receive wide adoption. And unfortunately wide adoption is exactly what is needed to solve the problems you have mentioned.

As much as I love the idea of lemmy, I like the idea of community and connection more. I say go to the places where you find those things because that will be the most meaningful to you. You may find that for a more privacy and free thinking community on lemmy, but for other topics you probably have to go elsewhere. For now.

So go and connect with people over things that you love!

This is my take as well.

I had no idea! I'm not sure how if I want RSS with lemmy/kbin. I might not want the noise in the RSS feed, you know? Just highly curated interesting stuff.

The idea of my question is to ask how one goes about this discovery of finding these interesting blogs.

My question was not to ask for you to find something that's interesting to me. My question was to ask how do you personally go about finding interesting (to you) RSS feeds. Tools or methods was what I was looking for. For example, see @[email protected] and their reply to this post.

This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for.

Inoreader has been great. There is a premium tier but I've never actually needed it. Nice, polished, professional, and perfect transition between iOS and the web interface.

 

I'd like to take my RSS feeds from an aggregator of news to a curated selection of interesting things. Interesting newsletters and blogs are where I think RSS shines, but I struggle to find this content.

What do you do to find these kinds of RSS feeds?

Yep. It’s a cycle that I continually get better at working with instead of against.

I've been toying with the idea of starting a physics (astrophysics welcome) community over at https://normalcity.life/(my home lemmy instance) for physics academics. I'd love a community like that because it's my everyday life. Does that sound interesting? Not sure if others would be interested.

Edit: home instance clarification

I'm in support of this. I was explaining to my wife just a bit ago that most of the "content" on lemmy and kbin is all about lemmy and kbin, and very little about anything else. For those of us coming from reddit, most of the content on reddit isn't about reddit. I'd like it if lemmy and kbin was mostly original content.

Can confirm that a wait and a refresh works most of the time.
