Ask HN: What are the other websites you visit daily? I'm curious over what others website, people regularly visit in addition to NewsYcombinator? As aggregator, I finds it great, especially for topic that are out of my area.
But is there similar websites in your daily feed or blog you follow? Any insight would be appreciated. Cheers. |
Google News (I couldn't find a clutter free alternative that gives an easy snapshot of news about India/world)
Brief (aka Morning Reader)
https://overcast.fm (I listen to podcasts from the web app when on the computer, I wish they had a native desktop app)
https://theoldreader.com (I've given up on Mac RSS reader apps)
Twitter, Reddit, Some private trackers, https://lobste.rs, MeFi, Vimeo, IMDb (almost daily)
And yes, wikipedia :)
- because who knows if it has updated. - if there are two or three posts since my last visit I can’t tell at a glance
Basically if ppl can’t be bothered to put out an RSS feed they can’t be bothered having me as a reader. That’s ok; there’s plenty to read, and not everybody needs to cater to my wishes.
I have various “major” blogs (e.g. vox).
I get corporate / tech updates like abseil, omnigroup etc — low volume and useful.
I follow personal blogs, some from people for whom it’s part of their business (Herb Sutter, Bartek, Heather Cox Richardson, Matt Stollar...),
Many things that are sent as “email updates” are available as RSS feeds too which is more convenient than cluttering my mail. Substack mailing lists for example are all available as RSS feeds.
Used to check the weather, forget the url. =P
https://www.oreilly.com/radar/topics/four-short-links/
has 4 links daily, high overlap with the sort of stuff on Hacker News.
JSTOR Daily is an online publication that contextualizes current events with scholarship. Drawing on the richness of JSTOR’s digital library of more than 2,000 academic journals, thousands of monographs, and other materials, JSTOR Daily stories provide background—historical, scientific, literary, political, and otherwise—for understanding our world. All of our stories contain links to free, publicly accessible research on JSTOR. We’re proud to publish articles based in fact and grounded by careful research and to provide free access to that research for all of our readers.
I also collated some of these sites that I think are really useful and segregated them based on their domains. Hope it is of great use for you readers! (:
