I used to use flipboard, then once I got hooked on Reddit I got lazy and just started getting all my news from there.

Since this place is still getting its start thought I might go back to one to supplement me. Where you guys get your news?

    I dusted off my Feedly account. You can follow up to 100 publications for free. For me, that’s more than enough to get the main U.S. and world headlines, plus a few special interests. I like to sort by Popular + Latest or just latest.

    You can sort by Most Popular if you pay $6 a month. I never felt a need to try that. The free version is easy to use, looks nice, and keeps me informed. Hot stories are marked with green text and a green arrow, so they’re pretty easy to spot.

    I set it up years ago. Just added every newspaper or news site I could think of, plus whatever looked interesting from r/worldnews and a few other subreddits.

      When I deleted my Facebook account a good five years ago, I started using RSS to get my news. I also use Feedly. I like how the app looks, I still use the legacy one, as it’s simple and I’m used to it.
