He can wait to see if Trump becomes president, because we all know how it will end with his BFF in charge.

Thing with me is I don’t want the raw stream of dozens of articles each day. I’ve used RSS feeds with Reddit for years now using the Top Week feed for each important subreddit.

Essentially I get around the top 12 articles/pictures/text-posts each day that real people think are actually important for each of my interests. Open to suggestions, though.

It feels like my experience on Mastodon after Twitter imploded. Hopefully it lasts.

Exactly so. I’m about a third way through Stolen Focus by Johann Hari. It had a section on infinite scrolling which made me realize it didn’t have it. The book talks a lot about social media’s grip on us.

I appreciate the fact there is no infinite scroll on the front page.
