I’m trying to dive deeper into RSS but I’m so tired of these clickbait or super corporate sites that I don’t know what’s good anymore.
I just started getting into baking and self hosting; would love to read people’s blogs but I don’t even know where to even look for that.
As a sys admin I can easily find solutions to my problems by searching and researching online but when it comes to other topics… I suck at it and don’t get what I’m looking for.
So, I agree what gets talked about on here and thought it would be easier to get recommendations by all you cool folks.
I usually put newspapers and a couple sports team blogs
RSS is by far the best way to read a newspaper imo

I just follow peoples personal blogs, no substacks or newsletters
People who are in it just to share cool stuff, not to build a ”community” to suck money out of.
That’s part of my problem is that I can’t find good personal blogs to follow.
What self-hosted RSS reader can you recommend?
Miniflux
Feeder on android is my jam
Freshrss to host with RSS-bridges for various things, with feedme as an android app front end
TinyTinyRSS on the home server with a FreshAPI plugin and Read You app on Android.

Good luck with that, I’m pretty sure those popular topics have been filled with slop a long time ago, and I have no sources to share. Maybe find something in the “small web” movement?
Here is what I found on the web (it may or may not be broken since I don’t self-host myself):
