Hacker News Reader

Comment by ge96 | Hacker News Reader

I did see that, but that RSS feed (atom?) I don't think I've ever used that in my life. I'll Google and see what/how to use it. I see it everywhere though.

edit: I did see that they have a podcast, nice, something to listen to while I walk 2 hours in the middle of the night.

Ughh, you're making me feel old. RSS is (was) an amazing system for tracking website updates over time. It lost out to Twitter and Facebook (which don't remotely replace the use case), though it is still what makes podcasts work.

I highly recommend Inoreader as a great RSS reader.

Thanks for the recommendation. I tried one, I am not quite sure how it works yet at least for that AWS one. One page was a full-article, another page was several articles in one, it was odd but thank you.

Regarding Blogger back in like 2011 or so, I saw RSS feed all the time at the bottom (usually still do).

Running a partial text RSS feed through here will often replace it with a full text RSS feed: http://fivefilters.org/content-only/

Google shutting down their Reader didn't really help.

Try feedly.

This is the one I tried due to editor choice/most downloads. I'm not sure if my experience was due to the source (AWS) or feedly's design. Guess I would just have to get used to it.

What I want is offline daily download of specific stuff. Being lazy myself, to build scrapers and download them to my phone but not an Android dev only web dev at this stage.

If you want email updates try something like blogtrottr
