Cake day: June 10th, 2023

  • I use newsboat for all my RSS needs, which is pretty much my main entry point for a lot of things:

    • News sites
    • Various blogs
    • Youtube channels (I unsubscribed from everything on my YouTube account, hardly ever login, and only use RSS to follow the channels I want)
    • Podcasts
    • I used to have some subreddits in there too, but those were ritually deleted after June 12th of course









  • When I am sending? Well, once things are set up properly I’m pretty confident that things arrive (though nobody can ever be 100% sure of course). I also tend to mail to the same recipient domains a lot, like for work and hobby projects, so once those are tested you get pretty confident.

    Unnoticed downtime is usually quickly noticed, I depend on my server for a lot of things. Senders are often resilient enough to keep things in their queue and try a few times. There’s also a fallback MX registry at my (3rd party) DNS host which will queue stuff in case the primary MX goes down.
