Tried RSS feeds but it sucks. There needs to be an RSS feed that only shows items that make it at least to the front page. Or maybe beyond some configurable vote threshold.

I use a feed that only shows items that hit the front page (otherwise I couldn't keep up). I forget how I found this originally.

[Edit: this feed now appears to be redirecting, but either URL works in my feed-reader: http://andrewtrusty.appspot.com/readability/feed?url=http://...]

I like the RSS feed because even though it's a lot to consume, there's always a gem or two hidden inside the depths of HN that never reaches the front page...
