The popular RSS feeds consolidator and reader, Inoreader, released version 6 of their browser extension, available on Chrome, Edge, Firefox… but not on Safari. Grrr. Another reason to use the ARC Browser.
Eighteen months ago, in July 2023, I wrote an article about migrating from Instagram to Pixelfed.
