Surf combines Bluesky, Mastodon, RSS, and other content into customizable open feeds on the web. I've been using it and love it. Let's bring back the open web!

Been testing @surf.social for well over a year. While it may be an adjustment for users of Bluesky or Mastodon on their own, it makes using the fediverse and atmosphere way easier and more discoverable. It's great for keeping up with publications and writers too. Congrats @mmc…
