I don't get how Flipboard is even a product when opening any browser gives you a wall of aggregated news stories unless you explicitly set it not to. Any website dedicated to that in 2023 is like a factory that just sucks in air and blows it out the other side.
I’ve used Flipboard for a really long time. Not because I think it’s good or anything, but because I haven’t found anything that’s just so much better whenever I’ve looked. I particularly appreciate the widget on my Home Screen because it usually has at least one thing I’m inspired to read. I did install Feedly, but I don’t use that any more than Flipboard, and it seems to do the exact same thing.
If you or anyone else have recommendations to something tangibly better though, I’m all ears.
Bells ringing... I remember that name... Search for it on the play store, holy crap, yes! That's the app I used to replace Google Reader! Go to install it to try it again... Wait... Why does it say "Open" and not "Install"?
That app has survived several phones without being opened lol. Poor thing. [tumbleweed rolls by]
