Seeing more people advocate for replacing aggregator sites like Reddit, HN, Lobsters, Discord etc for news with RSS, which is wonderful.

May I also be an advocate for the humble mailing list too. I’m a fly on the wall 99% of the time (imposter syndrome blah blah) but even then the conversations and shared links are always interesting.

If it’s an established OS, tool, etc, chances are they have a mailing list.
