A digital home

·

I'm trying out Feedbin.

It's a web aggregator: you read the blogs, sites and newspapers you follow all in one place.

Same goal as always, which I talked about here: breaking free from social media.

I don't mind sharing on platforms run by Zuckerberg, Musk and co. But the source has to be mine. I want a digital "home" that I control, where I publish what I want, and where people can follow me without going through a third party.

But following a lot of websites is tedious. Hence the aggregator. Like a small personal social network you're fully in control of.

And to set an example, I'm trying to follow the creators I like somewhere other than social media. The upside of Feedbin: it also lets you "follow" newsletters.

For now, it's complicated. I can't follow all the creators I want to. It isn't a habit yet.

But it's day one. I'll keep you posted.
