Re:O Reader My Reader – Remembering Google Reader on Tuesday April 26, 2016 @06:04AM (#11570611)

I've been using Facebook to subscribe to websites mainly because I know I'll check Facebook more often. I keep forgetting to check my Feedly account.

However I've discovered that after liking a few pages and joining a few groups the quality of information in my Facebook news feed is getting watered down. I'm missing more of my friends updates.

Currently my Facebook feed has a duel personality which makes it a bit useless.
