I mean, that’s a good solution too, but it’s more so to just keep subscriptions synchronized across devices without compromising on privacy. That way, for instance, you don’t have to subscribe both on FreeTube and Newipe manually.
Also, I just kind of like to open the RSS feed first because it’s supposed to be like my personal digital newspaper of what I would prefer to see rather than whatever the website or app wants me to see.
Because it’s my time I should decide what I want to do with it. Also, I’m trying to break the habit of compulsively searching something when I’m bored, and this approach has been working for me so far
