    Good question… as I open up lemmy for the 70th time today.

    Find a RSS aggregator that you like and add the RSS feeds of websites you enjoy going to. I’m assuming most have the ability to search websites based off topics to help you get started.

    The feed will show you every update those websites makes automatically.

    There’s no comments or frivolous things. Just headlines, images and text of the webpage.

    It’s a nice reprieve from social media.

    Fark.com is a really great news agitator and community

    It’s similar but different to Lemmy and Reddit in many significant and interesting ways

      Fark.com

      Time is a flat circle…

      I never went on Digg, but Fark is what I used pre-reddit.

        Me too. After years away, I poked in on it. It was a Saturday, and the Caturday thread looked just like the last one I had seen, many years before. Seemed strange.

      There was also slashdot back in the day, although I haven’t checked it out in a while.

      But the last time I actually looked up a porn performer who seemed cool, it turned out she was a raging transphobe who would want to kill half my housemates. :(

    Telegram.

    I know I am an apologist, but there’re many good groups of simple news and knowledge but also goot groups of trading and discussion.

    Also it’s one of the last bastions of freedom. Especially loved by people in repressed countries.

    YouTube, I learn quite a bit there. Also Discord, and lemmy

    Discord is where i went. It’s annoying that it’s less indexable, but that’s also protected it from malicious advertising.

    For me, MetaFilter, ResetEra, Tildes, and Feedly (RSS reader).
