Ask HN: Your interesting RSS feed

Hi,

I'm fed up with "curated" news feeds from Google and Flipboard:

- they're just supplying what their algorithm think that I want to read (but I prefer to be surprised and chalenged than to read what I already know)

- they "partened" with some big news site with paywall, so

1) their selection is quite mainstream and crappy

2) I can't remove what is not interesting to me

3) 1/3 of content is behind a paywall and it's a PITA to follow a link just to be stopped by a paywall

So... I would like to go the RSS way (like "back in the old days, when the internet was about sharing, not selling" ;-) ) and manager my own selection of news, blogs, etc.

Would you mind sharing your blogs and news site, or RSS directory ? Every subject might be interesting... as long as the writer is ;-)

Thanks for your help

I can provide you the following opml extract of my RSS feed reader.

Most are custom blogs, I also source from HN, Lobste.rs, a french news feed (Developpez) and dev.to, and I also shamelessly provide my own blog under the category "Artemix".

You can import what you want from it.

If you want to try a GoogleNews like app that didn't partner with any big news site, i built https://aktu.io. It's a RSS Reader / News aggregator, so you can add/manage your own rss feeds and there's also a "Top Stories" section so you can check what's going on in the world outside of your feeds. Would love to have your feedback!
