I currently run the top 8 or so per day from r/LocalLLama through my RSS reader. Actually going to reddit is eww, so I want it to be worthwhile. I usually get enough to keep roughly up to date just with title and text / graphs and only go if it looks really interesting.

With the upcoming demise of reddit RSS, I’m wondering if people have recommended (hopefully RSS friendly) places roughly equivalent. I guess I could filter HN which may be useful for many tech interests, but I don’t know what I don’t know, so I thought I’d pose the question to the crowd.

    Well, that’s super wordy for my taste, but that’s the beauty of local, you can change things to your taste. I’ll probably go Gemma 4 12B or 31B (Qwen 3.8 27B is great for code but I like Gemma for text munging), and am AMD based, but hermes is probably a good tool.

    Did you just mod the Reddit Reading skill to use redlib? Why not just use the skill raw (presumably with the OAuth)?

    Thanks again.

      the skill I’m using was just one that it made itself when I pointed it at my local instance, sent it along a few tasks, and told it to record its learning in a skill.

        Cool, been a while since I played with hermes, don’t remember that being an option, sounds like a Qwen 27B job. Fun, new things to learn.
