I'm looking for recommendations for app based/nice mobile friendly sites (free ideally, but I'd consider subscription) that can help me keep across news in the tech/UX/design space.
I'm somewhat reliant on my LinkedIn (which is such a toilet and usually just ends up annoying me) for news/emerging issues etc that affect my industry - the main reason being I can scroll through and open things of interest.
I've subscribed to newsletters/bookmarked sites but I just never seem to get round to reading them. Countless emails just stack up sitting unread.
My theory is if it's something I can just look through on my phone when I'd otherwise be doomscrolling, that I'll be more likely to read things.
My work is in the content strategy/design space and I'm in Australia - so bonus points if it has relevance to me in that way. Thanks all!
Edit to add - I used to use Twitter too, but you know... Just no.
What creators/websites about UI/UX are you following?
I'm not really, which I guess is the problem. LinkedIn is handy to follow people in my industry (particularly locally) as they will post things of relevance. But I kinda have to sort through all the wank, and 'here's my totally original take on what chatgpt means for us - in 23 slides of empty bullshit'. Twitter was good to a degree, but it's such a negative space and many people I followed left as things started to go bad.
I think the medium in which I consume this information is the key thing for me - I'm happy to read long articles and opinion pieces, but I need something I can easily scroll through on my phone.
Memes are fun and all but I'm pretty sure my brain is atrophying.
Yeah, I don't really know if LinkedIn can be saved. Being a "work instagram" the real content is really hard to find, and I'd rather scroll through stuff I'm interested in anyways than people who boast about how much incredibillion dollars they made using chatGPT.
