HN discussionDefinitely a great tool. I used to use it but now mostly use the Newsblur native version of this feature. I blogged about my specific stack for reading newsletters because it takes a surprising amount of configuration to read newsletters in a streamlined way. Once you get a Gmail filter set up for the big services like Substack it becomes pretty painless though. https://ylukem.com/blog/how-to-keep-up-with-newsletters
