Ask SN: What are your go-to news sources/feeds for staying informed?

General news:

* [NPR](https://www.npr.org/) mostly
* [Money Stuff](https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/authors/ARbTQlRLRjE/matthew-s-levine) I consider fairly general, with a financial view

Local news:

* The main paper for my city
* Their acquired independent news website

Tech news:

* Hacker News [RSS](https://hnrss.github.io/) to filter for ~"top stories"
* [Daring Fireball](https://daringfireball.net/)

Software updates: 

* Github Release pages have RSS feeds. I subscribe to the release feeds of software I self-host so I can keep things up to date
  * [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/)
  * [Traefik](https://traefik.io/)
  * Bitcoin Core / various other bitcoin software projects
  * [Synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse) Matrix server


"Social site" news:

Post-Reddit ... using Lemmy instances/communities I find interesting. Mostly on [ml](lemmy.ml) and [world](lemmy.world). Similar to HN RSS, I pick feeds for the "top stories in the week" which keeps the volume of news ~consistent. 

* Rust and various other programming languages
* Self-hosting 
* Deep Rock Galactic (Rock and stone!) 

[Nebula](https://nebula.tv/) for various videos without the noise of Youtube.

Various individuals who have personal sites, mostly tech operations folks. 

Setup with [FreshRSS](https://www.freshrss.org/) 

I check Damus/Nostr from time to time, but will eventually setup Nostr -> RSS so I can collect all the info into FreshRSS.
