Ask HN: How do you follow blogs / curate a content stream for yourself?

7 points| totalperspectiv | 6 years ago | reply

Twitter and HN have become my go to's for content. But HN has high number of off topic posts for my interests (which has the upside of exposure and cross pollination). Twitter is good, but has a lot of rambling, non-technical tweets etc. I use it mostly for developers posting links to their blog posts or GitHub projects.

Is there a better way to curate content for topics of interest?

I use QuiteRSS and group feeds into folder by their relative signal-to-noise ratio (as determined by me). It works well enough: when I only want to see content from sources related to iOS/Android development I only look at that folder; when I have more time I look at the other ones. Mark everything as read when I am done scanning news.

Later, rinse, repeat.

I use Feedly to curate blogs and websites. Some content come through email newsletters, then there are Twitter lists and Facebook groups to follow.
