I'd love to take a look at what other people are following and what they like about it. My own followed are kind of random.

Maybe this is one of those Qs a simple web search can answer...

Really hoping I don't dox myself with this...

I (tried to) remove all the local news sites, but this gives me a pretty decent overview of things I'm interested in, without being overwhelming. You should be able to find some local news sources, and add their LOCAL only feed, so you don't get hammered with national and international news.

Omg thank you for sharing. I think you're good re doxxing, the only one that looked iffy was that Ars Technica URL, and I did a thorough check and couldn't find any PII or credentials leaking.

My own feed is pretty pathetic (had to reinstall OS and did back up the past 5 years):

I also don' think I'm following Wikipedia correctly. I don't think I've ever managed to figure it out :/

Thanks, I updated the Ars one to a generic feed. Shoulda caught that.
