I'd like to take my RSS feeds from an aggregator of news to a curated selection of interesting things. Interesting newsletters and blogs are where I think RSS shines, but I struggle to find this content.

What do you do to find these kinds of RSS feeds?

...how are we supposed to figure out what you find "interesting"?

My question was not to ask for you to find something that's interesting to me. My question was to ask how do you personally go about finding interesting (to you) RSS feeds. Tools or methods was what I was looking for. For example, see @redshift@lemmy.ml and their reply to this post.

I usually find that adding a website/blog that I visit frequently (i.e. find interesting) to my RSS reader works pretty well.

The idea of my question is to ask how one goes about this discovery of finding these interesting blogs.

usually once you get into a hobby or a field that's interesting for you, you'll just stumble upon them. either someone from a community will recommend a website directly, or you'll notice that people link to a particular website often when discussing things, or it gets mentioned in a Youtube video about the topic, or it'll simply pop up in your search results. you can find bunch of interesting stuff by, well, being interested in stuff.

This is obvious and not at all in the spirit of what I'm asking. Again, some helpful users here have provided some tools that sort specifically blogs by category so that I can quickly find one that aligns with my interests.

Of course we all stumble upon things organically--that's great and that's how every normal person finds some great things. I was looking for some help beyond the obvious.
