Is Pocket being “rebooted”? I recently closed my Pocket account because I didn’t use it much. This renewed interest in its platform by its owner won’t make a difference. Inoreader + Anybox are meeting my needs.

I finally completed and shared the last part of my story “Moving out of WordPress”, this time, it’s the DNS side of the story, where I explain the process of moving out of GoDaddy to CloudFlare so that I can keep using my root domain numericcitizen.me. Go on my Numeric Citizen I/O website for all the details if you’re curious.

The next little challenge related to FeedPress will be deciding if I want to share individual feeds also or only the merged one. What if someone is only interested in my photos or videos?

Played with FeedPress this evening. The one thing that I like about it is the ability to merge many of my feeds into one and put it behind a custom domain. But at 10$ a month, it freaking expansive. Oh and I get analytics…. And yet…

My full review of Inoreader is finally out, with exclusive content for those who subscribe (free) to my website. I hope you find it useful. Empowering My Reading Workflow With Inoreader.

Thanks to some people on my timeline (they recognize themselves, I’m sure 🙂), I’m giving a shot at FeedPress. The idea behind this experiment: have a way to consolidate all my RSS feeds into one tied to my custom domain. Let’s see what happens with that. Feel free to subscribe to the feed here: https://feeds.numericcitizen.me. You’ll get Long Posts, Blog Posts, Photos and Videos.

Another YT video for the “Understanding Micro.blog” series coming soon. But, you know already what you need to know, right??

So that sales pitch of “it’s just a coffee per month” really doesn’t hold water when you think that most people will subscribe to multiple services. Source: It Only Costs a Coffee per Month - Kev Quirk

This is why I maintain a spreadsheet of my monthly (and yearly) spending. And frankly, even with my recent subscriptions cleanup, you wouldn’t want to know my monthly spending on apps and services. Experimenting is not a free ride. Far from it.

I am currently learning to use Hookmark. This thing is so, how I could say that, powerful? It’s the kind of app with a slow learning curve that will take some time to use to its fullest potential.
