A01▲545Hey everyone, I feel like a lot of us have gotten used to social media as our main way to stay informed. It’s where we get our news, trends, opinions, and everything. But honestly, my attention has been wrecked by it. TikTok, X, Instagram... I go in to check one thing and suddenly I’ve lost 90 minutes. So I started wondering what if we could actually control what we see? Like, fully. What if we could own our feed instead of letting the algorithm choose what we scroll through?

I've made a Hacker News skill for Alexa so people can get tech news while driving, cooking, or cleaning. The first version lists post titles and summarizes articles: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CKVDXC3 I'll have lots of time over the next few months to refine it and add things like - comment summaries - selecting posts by topic, and eventually - answering questions about articles What do you think of the skill?
