Good time to remind everyone that (like YouTube channels) Nebula channels have RSS feeds! It’s a great way to stay on top of the creators you care about without needing to sift through yet another streaming platform interface (also, Serial has great built-in recognition of Nebula feeds)

"Open source RSS readers have a UI that is at best lovingly brutalist and at worst too clunky for my use case" is a good chunk of the reason why Serial exists! If you're someone who's looking for a different option, give Serial a shot: github.com/megaflorasof...

Also worth noting that like all Serial releases, this functionality is just as usable in self-hosted instances! Learn more about setting up AT Protocol authentication in your setup here: github.com/megaflorasof...

Just published the first step of enabling web bookmarking for @serial.tube , and it’s really nice to give people the option of convenience vs control at every level and without boxing them out of “real” features It feels very complimentary to the data ownership ideals from AT Proto in a lot of ways

This is not exclusive to the hosted version either – send bookmarks to both the primary instance or to self-hosted instances with the exact same extension:

View sections are a new way of organizing content in Serial, designed to better enable you to organize content the way you want – this is often from "most read" to "least read" feeds, but it can be anything you want. Check out the release notes for more: serial.tube/releases/202...
