From the avatar wiki:

The term "Avatar" comes from the Sanskrit word avatāraḥ (अवतारः), which means "descent". In Hinduism, Vishnu manifests himself as an avatar to restore balance on earth, during a period of imbalance.

And there's a lot of overlap with Hindi Avatars in general: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar.

So pretty apt if you ask me

Thank you for the suggestion! I've been trying it out for a few days now and it is my new favorite app in terms of design. I'm having a strange problem where it keeps logging me out every couple days, but other than that I love it

I also recently asked this question to a programming community and a self-hosting community, so if either of those interest you (or any related computing topics):

I use Tiny Tiny RSS (https://tt-rss.org/) on desktop, and while they have an official mobile app, I've been enjoying Read You on Android

They've been working on the redesign for awhile now, but the version everyone's used to (Teamspeak 3) still works perfectly fine. TS3 clients can connect to new Teamspeak servers, and new Teamspeak clients can connect to old teamspeak servers, just without the new features like screen share

My group still uses TS3 on a daily basis on a self hosted server

That last part is a huge reason why I'm taking RSS more seriously. I don't want my information to be limited to what happens to get picked up by the news cycle or worse chosen by the algorithm. I'd much rather get the information from the source. So that definitely meets the criteria :D

Uh oh I might be subscribing to all of these! Thank you very much!

And wow that low tech magazine site is beautiful

Heyy I've been looking around at different android apps and I think I've also settled on "Read You." Thank you for the list, I haven't heard of lots of them like MariusHosting and they look interesting

Which feeds do you watch for automation? I also like automating what I can lol

 

I've recently (finally) taken the leap into self-hosting my RSS reader, and I'm wondering what feeds everyone's subscribed to

I've currently got some basics like Github releases for software I use, the great selfh.st blog for self-hosted news, hackaday, some essentials like xkcd, and an attempt at following new music releases from artists I like, but I'm sure there are other great feeds out there that I should also be aware of

The TF2 community has been going strong! There's even been a revitalization of classic custom game modes like TFWare, Balloon race, Dodgeball, Smash Bros, Randomizer, Class Wars, etc: https://teamwork.tf/community/quickplay
