For national, world, and general interest news, Apple News is really good. (…) it’s truly excellent. And a News+ subscription gets you access to a bunch of great publications with paywalls on the web.
My wife and I are on the bundled package which includes Fitness+, News+, TV+, and a bunch of iCloud storage and we haven’t looked back.
I don’t use Apple News+ as much as I’d like purely because I also have RSS/social + occasionally open the NYTimes app or The Athletic.
Gruber, about meeting Dr Oz (soon-to-be head of Medicare/Medicaid Services)
(…) a brilliant mind in the field of thoracic surgery, and yet dumb as a rock in everyday human interaction. I spent the first few minutes with him wondering if I should introduce myself. I spent the last few glad I hadn’t.
Another post inspired by @Manton, as I continue to read my way through my subscribed feeds:
I’m Tibz on most socials, @tibz.blog on Bluesky, and @tibz@micro.blog on Mastodon / @iTibz on Threads. These are all managed by Micro.blog. “Are you getting it? These are not three separate accounts… This is one place to post. And we’re calling it a blog.” 🤪
I’ve been loving the idea of Micro.Blog since its inception, but over the past few years, it’s really become a super interesting, powerful, and simple way for me to manage my personal online presence!
Followed @manton’s instructions and was able to set up my Bluesky account via Micro.blog (no longer tibz.bluesky.social but fully mapping to @Tibz.blog 😄
Either way: https://tibz.blog/bluesky also redirects directly to my Bluesky account anyways
Deactivated my Twitter over the weekend. Platform has changed a lot over the past 10 years or so — been using it since 2008-2009 and made a lot of Online-to-Offline/IRL friends there, but these days are long gone.
