Whenever I go to a tech news site, it’s mostly the same topics about the latest phone, the latest watch, or Nintendo/Playstation/Xbox. Or doom-and-gloom about privacy laws.
Don’t get me wrong. I like to stay on top of things, sure.
But sometimes I want to read about, I don’t know, advancements in eInk paper, DIY gadgets, transmitting data using non-conventional media (e.g. FM radio), odd games (e.g. that you can play with one hand, with your phone), coding fun things in some esoteric language, or good news like schools benefiting from tech donations.
Not necessarily those topics, but do you see how none of them are about Apple, Google, Amazon, AWS, iPhones, Android, Elon Musk (shudders), Pokemon, stocks, or Comcast screwing us all?
What websites do you visit for that kind of content? Thanks!
hackernews its like reddit but the user submitted links are tech and research of hardware heavy. A good portion of my RSS feed is from blogs that posts were submitted to there.
