Google Reader shut down announced ten years ago today
I can recommend https://feedbin.com/ as a great replacement. It's $50 a year, but in return you get a service that is rock solid with an owner who is luckily very good in >> not << implementing features: no feature creep, no breaking changes, no BS.

Why does no one talk about RSS readers?
I enjoy using Feedbin, as it's not only my own newsfeed for blogs, but it also supports Twitter too. The interface has a clean, thoughtful design which is really important for me.

Weekly Self-Hosted Poll: Which RSS feed reader/aggregator are you using?
I no longer self host it, but there is a community contributed Docker Compose stack for Feedbin.

The year of the RSS reader (really)
https://feedbin.com/ for a reader designed with admirable restraint, resulting in a lack of feature creep.

Ask HN: How do you read articles and newsletters?
I use Feedbin - https://feedbin.com for both my RSS feeds and email news letters - I find it works really well and allows me to favourite things as and when I wish to read them again.

The SugarBots on Twitter are out of control. WHY do I even bother reading LOL
You should know that there are tools which allow you to follow people's tweets without using Twitter (although you will still need a Twitter account for this to work), e.g. feedbin.com

Goodbye, Feedly
I’ve been very happy with https://feedbin.com
It’s a paid RSS syncing service and web app too, costs $5 per month, I use it with Reeder (and NetNewsWire etc). It doesn’t have any social cruft or AI assistants or ML companions.
I was also a Feedly user when I decided to try Feedbin, and I immediately noticed how much faster fetching the feeds was on Feedbin. I also like to have my email newsletters in same place (forward them to a Feedbin-provided email address), and I can have filters to mark things like sponsored posts and podcast show notes as read automatically, basically like mute filters.
Feedly premium tier costs pretty much the same, and I wonder how well it would stack against Feedbin. There’s also Inoreader which I think offers pretty similar feature set for a pretty similar price.
Feedly free tier is excellent, and you can work around many of its shortcomings by using an RSS reader app. For example, Feedly free doesn’t offer full text articles, but I can extract the full text with Reeder/NetNewsWire/etc on the client-side. If you really don’t care about speed, mute filters, or reading newsletters in your RSS reader, then Feedly free tier is already more than enough.

Introducing the new Godot Forum
Discourse is also open source https://github.com/discourse/discourse

My views on NeoHaskell
I disagree. Lots of communities, e.g. Julia or Stan, use https://www.discourse.org. Discourse is GPL2 and emulates old Internet forums.

Don't Use Discord as a Forum
Discourse is open source: https://github.com/discourse/discourse
You could hook it up to a mail provider and can host it yourself for less if you wanted.

Announcing tavern 2.0
Discourse is OSS (GPL v2): https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/LICENSE.txt. So if someone can figure out a way to get it to work on older browsers, that would definitely be of interest. I'm not sure how trivial this is though (e.g. from looking around there are features it uses like the chaining operator).
The software is discourse, so it may feel a bit different than the old forum (and reddit for that matter), but I've imported much of the original tavern structure and rules.

r/espresso is back (sort of)! Seeking community input on next steps
What about Lemmy? BeeHaw? Discourse?

Just an idea:What if we create a website that allows users to setup forum server based on customizable templates independently just like old school forums.
would discourse work for this at all? https://www.discourse.org/
