Although it's wrong as often as it's right on a lot of that stuff. But it also feels like they're trying to court tech bros. And I worry about what it's like for a company to support tech bros and stuff like that, going to that realm. So I was like, well, you know what? I want to move to a different platform.
Well, it was one click for me to take all of the feeds that I subscribed to in Feedly, download it into an OPML file, and then use a new tool, which is called NetNewsWire, which is what is an app that I use on my iPhone. And I imported all my feeds into NetNewsWire, and I was suddenly following all the same people again. Super easy to do.

Imagine trying to take all of the people you follow out of threads and move them into Twitter or X. You can't do it, right? You can't export all your stuff that it doesn't work. So that's why, like some of the stuff, it takes a little time to figure out what it is, but it's totally worthwhile. So TTRPG Blogs is just a website. You can go to dndblogs.com. I'll link to it in the show notes.

And that's just all the latest articles from that feed list that I've got, which is right here. You wanna see which blogs it's reading? These are the blogs that it's reading. The other fun thing is TTRPG Blogs, it has its own RSS feed, which means you can subscribe to D&D Blogs They have a name for this. It's like a RSS pool or something, a blog pool.

But basically, it's like when one site is aggregating RSS feeds from a bunch of other sites into a new RSS feed, so you're getting all of it at once. There's a name for that. But I'm doing it here. So you can subscribe to this, and that way you don't even have to subscribe to the other 100 blogs. You're getting it all here. But you have to trust that I'm keeping my RSS feed up.

I think it's better for you to go follow the exact ones you want to see rather than following it. But I offer it here. So blogs are cool, right? I dig blogs. And that blog role is really good. You know, if you want a good list of very popular, not very popular. I mean, some of them are popular, some of them aren't. But you want to follow it, then you can do that.

If you don't know what the hell I'm talking about, if you're like, I don't know what RSS is. I've talked to creators who have hundreds of thousands of views. And I said, do you know what RSS feed is? Like, I have no idea. I'm like, it's worth doing five minutes on Wikipedia to learn about RSS, learn about OPML.

learn about blogs and how they interoperate and interrelate because you're going to have a far better handle on the community than by going to these incentivized platforms that just want to feed you whatever they want to feed you. So Reddit, we saw Reddit was a big, a couple of years ago when they decided we're not going to let you use third-party clients anymore.
