If you subscribe to Richmond.com you might feel like me the that the web site home page sucks. Lots of filler. Below are the RSS feeds I use to get directly to the stories I might find interesting. You might find these helpful.

As RSS is dying, there are a few other notable RSS feeds that might be interesting to other news junkies.

It never died, we were just told it did.

If you don’t love the Mailchimp feed, I also post everything to GMRVA.com which has it’s own feed: https://gmrva.com/podcast?format=rss

What feedreader do you use? I haven’t used rss in a while but loved it when I did.

I use feedly - it's a lot like the old Google Reader (RIP).

I use the free version of feedly.

Feedly is good as commercial services go.

If you have any self-hosting capability, I used tinytinyrss for ages (only left because they moved to support docker only, and I don’t want to mess with that) and now use FreshRSS without much trouble.

If you’re on iOS, I think both Fiery Feeds and Reeder have “local only” options that should sync with iCloud if I understand it correctly.

Awesome, I selfhost with docker already, I’ll check that out, thanks!

If you use Brave browser you can plug these into their new page tab.

I've been paying for Inoreader for years and think it is worth every penny.

https://theoldreader.com/ is pretty great. I think there's still a free version with 100 subs

I like https://www.styleweekly.com/richmond/Rss.xml for some nice overview of what's happening and interesting art things.

If you use Thunderbird for email, it is also a good RSS Reader.
