I've used RSS for fifteen years and what finally broke me wasn't the feeds, it was the unread counter. Five hundred items, all the same size, all shouting.
So I built the opposite: everything goes in, one written piece comes out. Feeds (paste any site URL and it finds the feed), newsletters — each topic inbox has a real email address you can subscribe with — scheduled Google searches, X profiles. Every morning an AI merges the lot into a single briefing: deduplicated, sponsor blocks stripped, with the link to every original under each story. When a feed only publishes a teaser, the full article gets fetched and read.
Two details this crowd usually asks about:
- When several of your sources cover the same fact, they're merged into one entry with a label saying how many told it. It's not an AI claiming something is important — it's your own sources agreeing, and you can see who.
- The digest is also a podcast on a private RSS feed, with show notes and source links, so it plays in any podcast app.
It's early. If you're the person with 200 feeds and a guilty conscience, I want to know where this falls apart: https://proofite.com
