• Feeder - for reading rss feeds, which takes up more of my time than all social media combined
• KeePassDX and Aegis - passwords and 2fa
• Vanilla Music
• Jerboa
• Droid-ify
• Quillpad - note app inspired by google Keep
• SimpleNotes - checklists. I don't like how Quillpad handles checklists.
• Newpipe
• Discreet Launcher
• FFUpdater - installs and updates browsers

Yeah, not all sites have an rss feed or it's hard to find. Here is a few tips:

• 1/Share the url with your rss reader, the reader can search for you. This doesn't always work.
• 2/Add one of these to the site's url /rss .rss /feed
• 3/If step 2 doesn't work look for a "blog" or "news" tab and try steps 1 and 2 there.
• 4 When all else fails ask for feeds, making sure to state the topics you are interested in.

Nothing unusual with my feed - news, tech, science, environment. What I may do differently is I set up a filter on Mastodon so any of my feeds are only seen in rss. I really don't need to see a Wired article 6 times.

Discreet Launcher is my favourite. Works great on phone or tablet.

One thing to note is it doesn't support widgets.

I logged out after Friday's disaster. Today, I deleted my account due to a few factors:

I've been bored for months on Reddit. 5000+ subs are closed because Steve is an ass. Twitter, Mastodon, and Lemmy all work fine with a browser. Reddit just sucks without a well made app.

Aurora Store has been having issues for months.

GrapheneOS can be installed on any phone if the manufacturer wants to do so.

Every time I visited a site with interesting content I looked for the rss symbol. Often times I'll just add .rss or /feed to the site's URL. Sharing the URL with Feeder often works.

I have all feeds in a note encase someone asks for them. Happy to post.

Everything from TheAnonymousJoker is a shitpost.

EWWW

Why is there no link to the article?

Options. Like being able to install a google-free os. The wide assortment of open source apps.
