Hey all. So with reddit seemingly dying, I am trying to figure out a decent way to recreate the reddit widget I use to get gaming news on my home screen with rss feeds. I mainly see news links from r/games, r/nintendoswitch and r/ps5 on my widget right now

I contemplated using reddit’s rss feeds to kind of recreate the widget information, however I have found the details it gives to be lacking.

I am not 100% sure if I just am not properly using the feeds, or if I’ll need to look into actual news sites to get what I want.

Below is a little picture of what my widget currently looks like. Any suggestions on how best to get something similar spun up when the API dies?

    Yeah I’m on android. I’ve got a couple rss widget apps. Just trying to figure out what websites are best to use to get the same kind of news, or if there’s a way to make the reddit rss feeds look better, because they’re pretty bare bones as far as I can tell (I may be just doing something wrong, I am quite inexperienced with rss feeds)
