An odd discovery on Spotify

This is also the only way I can make sense of twitter, skip the 'feed' or whatever it's called[0] and go right to my curated lists.

[0] as an aside, I only just made the connection that 'feed' is likely an abbreviation of 'newsfeed' but also brings a strong and stark connotation that I'm livestock to be fed

Funny, maybe it's a language thing (French speaking) but to me the first thing that comes to mind when speaking about feeds is "RSS", so I genuinely never made the connection.

It probably is: English has "eat" vs. "feed", German has "essen" vs. "fressen", but duckduckgo.com translates both to French "manger".

Interesting. I'd have translated "feed" to "nourrir", not "manger", but they're loosely synonyms.
