Thank you so much for your kind words.

Indeed, because of our limited resources, we are only able to share 3 articles per issue, which has a high probability for all of them to be a "miss". We are making moves to grow, and hopefully that means more articles per issue and thus more value to our readers.

I am also very glad that you find the number of articles found in Hackernews and Reddit is low. That means that my time spent shifting through my list of more than 1,000 (and growing) RSS feeds actually produces good results, which was a bet I made early on when deciding what sources to use for my curation.

Also, yes, I do take likes/dislikes into consideration. It's a very helpful tool that helps me see when I've done something people really didn't like or liked a lot. For example, my editorial on Google's AlphaStar was very well received: https://us18.campaign-archive.com/?u=ab0f46cf302c0ed836e0bf0...
Thank you for doing this, I've found the newsletter refreshing and, even if the handful of articles aren't my cup of tea, they aren't retreads of stuff I see elsewhere. Programming language of the day is an especially deep well of stuff I've never heard of. Even though I'll likely never use any but the most mainstream of languages, it is always interesting to see what pops up.
Thank you for your kind words <3
