That’s an important counterpoint: sometimes the fix is less intake, not better retrieval. What do your “filtered digests” look like (sources + cadence), and what makes them trustworthy enough to replace capture? This might be a better wedge than task-suggestions.

My setup: RSS (Reddit, HN, AI tech blogs) + a few investment YouTube channels → daily morning digest.

The key for trust was picking my own sources. No algorithm deciding what's "relevant" - just feeds I've vetted. When something's missing, it's obvious which source dropped the ball.

I ended up building a tool for this (daige.st). You connect sources, tell it what matters, and it sends filtered summaries. Has a memory feature that gets better at filtering over time.

Cadence is still WIP. Daily for fast news, maybe weekly for deeper topics. Curious what works for others.
