Send me a textThis is a Twitter Space recording, so my audio sounds way worse compared to normal. But hey. It is good content regardless.On January 26, Stefan Blos and I hosted a Twitter Space called “iOS Coffee Chat: Staying up to date with iOS development”.We hope to do more of these. This episode is the permanent archive of that Space.Recommendations to get started?Just try  https://netnewswire.com/ (free) and add some website to it. If you want to look for (a lot) more feeds, go look at iosdevdirectory.com. Make sure not to overwhelm yourself when you get started with RSS readers. In the end it is just another inbox you probably want to keep at or close to zero. So build up gradually and do not be afraid to remove a feed if it is just too much.The second approach is to sign up to a few newsletters listed in these notes, or (again) go look at iosdevdirectory.com for a lit of newsletter. And yet again, slow and steady beats signing up for all of them. If audio is more your thing? Listen to my podcast (AppForce1). I will have a weekly episode with new articles of the week. I also have a digest newsletter containing the same links and links to all content I released over the week in some capacity.Links mentioned:iosdevdirectory.com (Great source to find many many newsletters and blogs about iOS development.)appforce1.net/podcastApple Developer News (Also look for the small RSS text top-right of this page.)Newsletters:https://iosdevweekly.com/ (The newsletter by Dave Verwer, he also created the iOS Dev Directory.)https://www.avanderlee.com/swiftlee-weekly/https://appforce1.net/news/http://weekly.swiftwithmajid.comhttps://www.swiftlyrush.comhttps://swiftweeklybrief.comSadly Swift Weekly Brief doesn’t have an author right now.
