I recently got into RSS and I'm trying to discover some feeds. What I honestly don't like is that some websites that use RSS and post a new article every couple hours. I'm looking for more personal blog type feeds. Personal projects. Posts that have a "soul" in them, if you will. If you have some that you love, share it here so everyone can take a look ^^.

And also if you have your own blog or RSS feed, you can share it here too! I don't think that would count as advertisement. I mean personally I would love to check them out!

Have a good day/night, much love.

Just set up my own FreshRSS instance over the weekend to centralize all the tabs I open in the morning. Found this post via my Beehaw Local feed ;)

ooh.directory is good for finding blogs of this type, although blogs listed vary in whether they'll have RSS feeds.

This is a great resource! Just skimming through it I already picked up some new feeds

A few personal blogs, NPR rss, and PBS NewsHour's Youtube page's rss feed.

Lifehacker's parent company is implementing a scheme to put more content into their blogs generated by AI. You don't have to remove them from your list if you don't want, but their staff writers are considering either striking or quitting

No that's good to know. Thanks for the heads up. Fuck scabs and AI scabs, too.

Piped, a YouTube scraper to avoid google also had RSS for your account subscriptions!

Good to know! Thanks

Two websites that I use quite a lot to find cool personal blogs/RSS feeds:

  • Ye olde blogroll is a hand-curated list of interesting personal blogs in English
  • The IndieWeb webring is a webring where people with indie blogs (ie. no substacks, no big websites, etc.) can sign up to get more visibility, it's a real treasure trove

Some personal blogs that I like (mine included), all of them are indie and as far as I know they all are maintained by a single person (so they don't post several times a day!):

Welcome to rss. My favourites aren't exactly personal - more long reads and insightful news items with some depth - 'theConversation'.

Good luck in your quest

The website FeedSpot can be a good way to search for rss feeds. Search for a topic and go down the list to see what you like the look of.
