Try one with no algorithm. Mastodon is a good start for this. Fill your timeline with what you love.

Every time ive seen an article about worst state it’s always Mississippi :-/. But these days thanks to awful leadership Florida and Texas are making a case for the crown.

My last three jobs...

• Applied directly to the req on the company job portal
• Recruiter contacted me about the role
• Recruiter contacted me about the role

Now I won’t sleep tnite. Great…

Sounds like your faith in the average redditor to have general awareness is quite lofty. I suppose I don’t share that conviction. For the record I never looked at the front page. Just jumped straight into my communities of interest.

Since you found my comment here I’m going to safely say you aren’t in the “most redditors” camp I referenced 😅. You’re one of the good ones.

This is 100% true. That said, I bet most redditors had no idea this was happening. But as I think about it. I bet most sub mods did, they could have found spines… but like you said…

You do you then! I tried notion but switched to obsidian because I found Notions web UI awfully slow given I just wanted to muck around with plaintext and markdown files. It wasn’t a bad product though. They’re popular for some good reasons too.

Basically this https://www.notion.so/product/ai. AI hype train, won’t be long til this is default (if it isn’t already) and they steal all your notes/writing to feed LLMs and monetize your work without you knowing.

What kinda notes are you looking to take? If you want something real simple but works across all devices, is super fast and with great search, try Simplenote. If you want something with more power, I’ll echo what others here have suggested and say Obsidian. Don’t do notion.

Same. In the market now for a laptop so could be a good time to jump in.

I like MacStories too

It’s been a bit since I got an episode up but you could check my podcast - https://shellsharks.com/podcast. It’s tech / infosec-themed. I’m pretty sure I take a lot of jabs in the other direction haha.

I love Reeder for iOS. For service I’ve been using Feedly since the beginning so I’ve stuck with them. But these days there is probably better (and cheaper) options.
