    Use feeeed for iOS. Looks and feels more modern than a lot of the other RSS apps but without any stupid bs. Free with no ads. Has a built-in reader mode that strips out article ads. Developed by one very awesome dude.

    It can handle more than just RSS content too- you can follow Bluesky/Mastodon accounts, YouTube channel uploads, subreddits, and more with it.

    I highly recommend changing the default view from “cards” to “list” so you can see more content.

    When Reddit went to shit I turned to RSS to get my daily news. After trying many different iOS apps, all of which either sucked or had a monthly fee, I came across one called feeeed.

    It has become one of my favorite apps and I highly recommend it. It’s free and extremely well designed! I believe its creator also works on the Arc browser team.














  • I went back and looked at the articles I had read and dug a little deeper to get to an interview with Lilly Wachowski herself:

    Continuing on The Matrix**, you confirmed a couple years ago that it was a trans allegory —**

    No, I didn’t. 

    You didn’t? Tell me more. 

    Yeah, so that came from an interview I did for Disclosure. They had a bunch of Matrixquestions. And the question they asked me was about Switch, who was originally written as a trans character who was male in the real world and female in the matrix. And they took that response and attached the question that everyone now references that it’s a trans allegory. And so it was slightly out of context, but I don’t sit here and put a stink up about it, because it is a trans allegory in that it was written by two closeted trans women. And so all of the things that are in it are super-duper trans. The idea of transformation, even the whole “My name is Neo, Mr. Anderson —” that idea of claiming identity, it’s undeniable.

    To be honest, her statement doesn’t seem like either a denial or confirmation to me so 🤷‍♂️
