    I think almost all RSS feeds are just news aren’t they? Maybe there is some collection of rss from personal blogs that are interesting to follow?

      It can be news on topics you’re interested in, blogs on topics you’re interested in, comics, subreddits, etc. To give an idea, I follow:

      • Ars Technica for tech news
      • NASA for space news
      • Local blogs on food/events/news/ going on in my city
      • RockPaperShotgun for gaming news
      • “A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry” for blog posts from a history professor
      • Richard Y Chappell for blog posts from a philosophy professor
      • A few YouTube channels
      • A few niche Reddit feeds
      • XKCD for comics (most webcomic artists have an RSS feed)

      Depending on your RSS app, you can also follow podcasts. I use InoReader for the above but I prefer a dedicated podcast app. There’s good/entertaining RSS feeds on the internet if you’re willing to curate it! It’s nice to get away from internet comments.

        The main problem with RSS, and it was nerfed like 10 years ago, is that websites realised they were giving up news without getting your page impressions so they stopped putting the full article on the feed.
