Problem statement: I have a bunch of links to sites that update infrequently (think monthly or quarterly magazines) and I want to remember to go read them when they've updated.

RSS isn't a great solution since almost all sites spam out constant low-value content which I'd prefer to not be bombarded with - I just want to see the main updates, similarly to how I'd have received a magazine in the mail, in the past.

The basic answer here is just keep a list of links and remember to click them, and that's what I do, but it feels like there could be a better solution...

How do you handle this?

It also funnels down to freedom from bureaucracy too. Look at how hard it is in many places to legally build a non-fancy home on your own property. Endless restrictions, regulations, permits and inspections. Nobody is trying to free us from this.

What would your angle be? I feel like even with Portal 2, they were starting to exhaust the really cool possibilities

Have you ever tried Kagi? It's pretty interesting and I'm giving it a shot.

Forums were great but the friction to find and join new ones was very high.

 

Long time back I used to use a spam email whenever I needed one. Then services started declining emails from those services, so I made a temp Gmail I used for everything. But I'm not comfortable with how much I use that.

What of the purges, staration, and slaughter

Right, why would I bother with the reddit IPO? IPO pricing is all over the place. If I want it - I don't - I'll buy it day 1.

They reject being labeled by the left, it's the same how the left doesn't like "woke" any more.

Start trying Linux now using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). It's a great way to dip your toe in the water, and your computer can run it today.

 

I don't mean an application of technology. Or a specific fact. I'm interested in more big picture things.

Whatever most people in real life would say is moderate.

Unsure if trolling or not. Yes, you have the power to choose what you view online.

I'm sorry, you're confused about this. People with money are not driving the behavior of the hottie enjoyers. It's the reverse. Joe Everyman is willing to give his attention to hot women, and Instagram is profiting off that.

 

Basically I'm looking for a heterodox political lemmy community where moderate opinions are valued and the level of discourse is pretty good. Where people are there to talk and there's not as much venting.
