Privacy Is Not Free (and maybe it shouldn't be?)
Tired of being the product instead of the customer, so I switched to Kagi.

Use RSS
As an Apple user and an Apple One subscriber, I have access to Apple news where I can read and listen to my heart‘s content. However, I don’t. Instead, I choose to use RSS as much as possible. That way, I can create my own custom “newspapers“ and go through hundreds of articles a day while reading only 10% or less of the ones I’m really interested in.
Molly White’s article explains what RSS is and some great ways of using it, way better than I could ever, but our sentiments are the same. Check it out here.
As a visually impaired person, a huge shout out goes to her because she also offers her newsletter articles in audio form, as a podcast. To make things even better, she doesn’t use in AI generated voice or anything. She actually reads them herself. Thank you so much for that, Molly.
Go out there and start using RSS today! Although there are numerous RSS readers out there, my favorite for the Mac and iOS is NetNewsWire.
Let's Go Marlins!
The fish are on a roll. Last month they were 16 games below 500. After this weekend’s sweep of the New York Yankees, they reached 500. What a comeback! I truly enjoyed watching the whole series because it reminds me of the 1997 and 2003 seasons, when they won the World Series. The players are just having fun out there, lose and ready to win. Never giving up.
