Recently deleted Instagram, Reddit and disabled YouTube shorts. I now noticed how much I miss doing something — like when sitting in the train or during breaks at work.

So what do you do with your idle time? Any suggestions?

    I have a RSS reader that I check everyday for articles / blogposts from websites I subscribe to.

    The interesting stuff gets saved in Wallabag to read later. It syncs with my phone, and I can read offline whenever I got some time to kill.

      Any interesting feeds you’d recommend? My phone launcher has a built in RSS feed which is really nice

        I follow the daily best posts on hacker news https://hnrss.github.io/

        This exposes me to quite interesting blogs (mainly tech, but not always). If I find someone worth following, I’ll add their blog to my list as well. That’s how I’ve been building my RSS feeds over the years.

        From the non tech blogs that I’ve found there, from the top of my head, these are nice

        https://going-medieval.com/ - medieval history professor’s blog. She’s quite witty, and makes super interesting posts about the daily lifes of people in the middle ages.
