I use NetNewsWire, an RSS reader on iOS and macOS. Ars Technica is the main tech news site I follow in there, but also follow a few dev blogs.
I find if I have too many general purpose tech news sites there is a lot of duplication of big stories, and the volume becomes overwhelming to the point I give up. So I try and keep it simple.
HN fills in some gaps, and I figure if a story is big/important enough, I’ll hear about it eventually.
I use RSS for as much as possible (it’s how I found this post). On iOS/Mac I use the Reeder 5 app. I’ve tried dozens of RSS apps and found its UX to be the best, by far.
I use RSS for HackerNews[1], Reddit, YouTube, and Substack.

Any recommendations on YouTube / Substack?

I find that by using work email not personal, more likely to look at it.
