Searching for good news sources

Hi everyone,
I am currently working on setting up my rss reader. I do have the problem on finding good sources that publish information about new technoligies.

I really don't care about twitter, elon musk, mark zuckerberg, instagram or tiktok...

I am interested in opensource, linux, photography, privacy, it-security, ...

So if someone wants to share their most used news websites I am glad to expand my knowledge :)

For my technology stuff, I generally use the Wall Street Journal Tech News Briefing Podcast, Lemmy, and big news sources like New York Post tech news sech section or Epoch Times tech section.

hackernews continues to be a pretty good resource, even though it can be kind of hit or miss, and often it's not about new technologies.

I fell deep into the hn thread about Super NES cartridges, not exactly new technology, but it lead me to things like videos of people hacking a Famicom to do ray tracing in real time.

hackernews can still often feel like it has too much about the FAANG companies, tho, so like I said, hit or miss.

MetaFilter is similarly hit-or-miss because it's a general-interest site, but it has a lot of coders and makers on it, and often there's really good tech discussions there... but they're probably the minority of the threads on MeFi.

Check out Phoronix. Great for Linux news.

I like it’s Foss, there tutorials are pretty good, there news feed is decent. I also have the Flathub recently released apps feed, it lets you discover new apps for Linux that you might not have heard of otherwise

I can’t stand the topics you mentioned either and I make a big effort to filter them out whenever possible! There’s a tool called https://siftrss.com/ which can be the middle man between you and your RSS feeds. It allows you to filter out any articles containing black listed keywords which is super handy.

My biggest frustration about modern RSS feeds is that the articles are often incomplete. Some clients are able to get the full feed anyway but it usually results in broken formatting.

Here are my favorite news sources:
