How To Stay Up To Date On The Internet? (lemmy.world)

I realize this may sound a bit stupid considering it's the Internet; there's information everywhere. That being said, over on Reddit I used Third Party Apps like Apollo and Pager to stay up to date on certain things (Apple OS updates, Windows OS updates, Nvidia Driver updates, etc) where they would send me alerts when new updates were released, and now with Reddit shutting down these Apps I'm a bit lost on how to continue staying up to date, that is without manually refreshing official sites and waiting for a new update to release. Now, yeah, I probably could just follow Twitter accounts, but Twitter is a shithole.

It's actually quite difficult to avoid hearing about important events even if you tried. You're not obligated to be up-to-date about everything that's going on. You can't. You're always missing stuff. Most of the information on the internet called "news" is just junk anyways and you're probably better off not filling your mind with it.

Don't want to tell anyone how to live their lives but just my two cents.
