RSS is my main source of news. I rarely open social media; mostly just to check notifications. It's simply the worst place to spend your time, and definitely not where I go for relevant news.
Here's a sample of what I’m currently following - maybe it'll help you build your own:
- Job listing (WWR [1], RemoteOK, etc.), because I'm looking for a job.
- Tech news: HN ≥ 100 pts [2], Github trends [3], TLDR AI & webdev [4], and r/technology [4], Product Hunt [6], Google devs [7].
- Science: r/science [4], ScienceDaily [8], and a couple few more.
I have a smart RSS reader that makes my own algorithmic feed. Anything you see me post to HN was picked first by it and then picked by me twice.
I have a little link for you from the University of Toronto:

That gives some pretty handsome pointers on this subject. Apparently almost everything has rss, even so as we don't see it always.

- And a lot of blogs!
