Yes and no. Would be nice to have more active niche communities, but I don't want this place to become full-on Reddit.

Can't possibly be denser than Elon.

Kind of. A bastard in the sense that he was a major influence to modern men's fashion and fast fashion as a whole, but otherwise he was really a victim of the system that sought a way out and unwittingly contributed to the very same system, not to mention that he was kind of a jerk.

Techbros are the modern day equivalent to snake oil salesmen.

My computer is a temple and merchants can get out.

Gotta steal this one and start using it.

It's what I've been using recently, but I really dislike how it's a browser extension, that and how it can't really handle audio files from my experience.

Good question.

I'm yet to find something that supports notifications, handles podcasts/videos and isn't janky as all hell or hasn't been abandoned for a decade by now.

I know some people who use it for videos, etc.

That's one of my problems with Thunderbid, anything that isn't a HTML page just has loads of problems with it. In fact, most of the readers recommended above by other people suffer from the same problems, it kind of sucks.

The idea is to imitate the experience of something like Feedly, an RSS feed you can access from anywhere on any device, recommendations, all that... Which is overkill if all you want is just a simple program that queries for new posts every x hours.

UI is too bloated, slow, resource hungry and I've had problems with displaying some feed content in the past.

Outlook

God forbid.

The problem is finding a good local, desktop based RSS reader other than thunderbird or a damn server app, especially if you're on Windows.

You don't want to play on Linux? Get a steam deck... Which runs on Linux! 😀

Ingenious.
