Likes Curate your own newspaper with RSS by Molly White.

Readers no longer see news articles from the journalists they chose to follow on Twitter as the site downranks any posts that link offsite. When they search on Google, they’re bombarded with error-ridden AI facsimiles before reaching the higher-quality underlying work. 

I enjoyed listening to the podcast version, feeling smug as a long time RSS reader. Spells out lots of new reasons for using RSS. Watching Ewan Macintosh use NetNewsWire on a train, before Wifi on trains, before smart phones, changed my digital life. I though then it might change everyone’s, maybe still will?

Read: NetNewsWire 5 Feature Requests

I first used NetNewsWire back in 2002, really started using in in 2005 stopped when it left Brent Simmons’ hands.

The new version is lovely, I am still hooked into inoreader so hope that one of the feature requests it to add that as a syncing option. Until I will use NetNewsWire for a few feeds (I think the default one), I don’t do all my reading via inoreader anyway so usually have a few double reads anyway.
