Welp, that didn’t last long.
I don’t know how much content there is to share, so you might be overflowing with things to talk about every week. But I fear that doing so much effort weekly could be unsustainable. I would suggest, or hope you consider, a less freqent blog/podcast, like every other week. I think this would be more modest, and easier to maintain. You wouldn’t need to change to title of the blog, either.
Anyway, this is an exciting project and I’m thankful for your work.
@jonah@lemmy.one you’re alive! Welcome back, this server needs 4 months worth of maintenance!
Would be nice if it was possible to subscribe to en email to receive this blog automatically. Also, would be nice to post youtube links via piped or some other front-end app, since its about privacy :)
RSS
yeah never used that to be honest, I guess I have a reason to check it out. Still, to reach people a newsletter straight into an inbox is better. What RSS is recommended?

I use newsboat, if you’re used to the terminal.
If you’re comfortable hosting your own services, I can recommend FreshRSS for an aggregator and FocusReader for an android client.
This is great! The length and tone was perfect IMO
Hope you guys do these for a while to come :)
This is great. Thank you for creating such a nice and succinct summary
