I read a lot of independent blogs. When you see a blog post with a good tech analysis, subscribe to them as a lot of people write non-tech stuff as well which would never make it up on HN [I wrote about RSS here: 1].
You can also set up another RSS reader and just import a couple of those "Awesome blog" lists on Github. That way you have a collection of random shit you can browse through and sometimes you get an interesting title.
Get on an ActivityPub server (Mastodon, Pleroma, MissKey) or set one up yourself. You can find a couple of threads on here and Lobste.rs where people post their Fediverse accounts and you can follow some of those and then branch out and find other people.

- dmix 6y agoAny RSS reader recommendations?
- Smaug123 6y agoNewsBlur is pretty well thought of, I believe, although I haven't used it for years (I use Thunderbird instead).
- beaugunderson 6y ago- self-hosted miniflux, because products like NewsBlur remove posts older than some number of months (though if you're fine with that, NewsBlur is a great product and exposes the same API that miniflux does and so can be used with the below readers too) - Reeder for macOS, which pulls from miniflux - Fiery Feeds for iOS, which pulls from miniflux
