I'm trying to do less browsing and more intentional reading. RSS works great for this. There is a bit of overwhelm for me in filtering out the right things in a RSS feed. But, generally the work is filtering out posts I don't want, as opposed to filter out the spam and ads I don't want when I'm browsing without intention.

https://RSS.surf (I built this) gathers up the RSS feeds for anything that makes it to the front page of HN. It gathers up interesting blogs, lets me quickly assess if they are useful and interesting, and then easily subscribe. It's been a good transition from browsing HN to getting more intentional.

If you sign up using the login button in the top right, rss.surf will email you a summary of the RSS feeds for the prior day (you can see examples of prior summaries by clicking "see past emails").

FreshRSS is integrated (https://reader.rss.surf) so you can click to subscribe, or just use your own feed reader.
