I still find the old Internet in a few ways. Mastodon, Signal group chats, quiet local (geographically) or private Discord servers, RSS, email, XMPP or IRC if I feel like it. Definitely use uBO. I sometimes even surf Neocities. Stay away from "algorithmic" social media and all 24-hour news—if something important happens, it'll show up on the HN RSS feed. If you want to stay politically active and informed, subscribe to political activist newsletters and write your congresspeople.
