  • Newsblur right now. I don’t want ads, and I like the f-droid disabled the intrusive options from the playstore.

    Any other reader recs? Not married to it by any means, I like it well enough. I don’t like that I can’t browse by folder or by everything without a premium subscription though. $99/year is extreme for my uses, wish there was a more palatable option for intermediate users. Still, it’s easy enough to jump between topics.














  • Mine have no wire! They are separate buds, one goes in each ear, and they have a battery case like most modern earbuds (huge convenience boost from trying to plug in the old ones with the connector in that super awkward spot).

    I used to also use the wired one with the connector that goes on your neck but they died after like four years of abuse and then I found these! They’re great, let me know if you can’t find them and I’ll link to them somehow.


  • I use Back Beat fit Bluetooth headphones that use the clip behind the ear style. I don’t run I bike and I like them because the touch controls are larger and tactile so I know when I pushed the button, the battery life is excellent, but most importantly they do not, I repeat do not block external sound. I need to hear people, horns, sirens, etc and most earbuds, even non-noise cancelling filter out too much sound to be safe.

    Also they are sweat proof. Trust me. I sweat a lot. I even wear them on the shower sometimes.
