Is there any community or communities you like the most?

    That’s the thing though, I do want to know about the topics and events, they’re important and have huge consequences. But previously I was relying on nice things from communities I enjoy hearing from to space the more painful content out.

    I have learnt that nice content requires a lot more activity if it stands a chance against the sheer volume of news created. But I also know there are lots of people here who have nice content to share that would benefit us all.

      I used to, but I’ve switched entirely over the RSS after years of relying on places like reddit for news. It’s still the same news sources, but I noticed now seeing all the articles released that day how much stuff is cherry picked to submit that has the best chance of gaining traction due to alarmist headlines. So seeing a lot more of the headlines without the community algorithm that determines what is shown.

        Fair point. Perhaps I need to finally do the RSS thing. I guess the old ways are the best after all…
