The modern web can be distracting, invasive, and slow. Luckily, there's another way! Using an RSS/Atom feed reader can really help cut out distractions. Doing so from the terminal can enhance the effect, keeping you informed without all of the adtech and algorithms. Enter Newsboat! Newsboat is an open source fork of Newsbeuter, and is a wonderful terminal-based feed reader. I even fire it up on my old Wyse terminal in the video! In this video, I explain how to install and configure Newsboat on Manjaro, Fedora, and Pop!_OS. It's packaged up for other distros too, and non-Linuxes like macOS (via Brew) and FreeBSD. Shout-out to Christian from @The Digital Life for helping out my pronunciation! This video also has some footage of @Techno Tim and @Learn Linux TV , both of whom are great. If you want to help support the channel, you can join the Patreon at https://patreon.com/VeronicaExplains. For $10/mo, I'll print your name on my dot matrix printer and put it in the video. Super neat! There's also a $1 and $5 tier- any little bit helps me spend more time making videos! Lastly, the shirt is at https://vkc.sh/merch.
