This is why I self host a freshrss session and I visit it a couple of times a day. I chew through about 1000 articles a day very quickly just actually consuming maybe a half dozen to twenty out of the lot.

I can see trends in the proliferation of particular stories or technology and I never feel like FOMO.

I dont use FB/insta/etc at all, I only ever visit X/twitter if I see a link posting to something in particular.paticular

It lets me control the firehose of news from the internet.
