Links I Would Gchat You If We Were Friends
The name says it all: this reads like a well-read friend's message on a Saturday. Caitlin Dewey, a writer and essayist in Buffalo, New York, has sent it since 2014, and its regular weekend edition, now past its 790th issue, pairs her take on technology and internet culture with a batch of curated links.
It bills itself as a newsletter for people who miss the old internet, and the picks follow suit, favoring odd, human stories over the week's loudest ones. Paying supporters get the full archive back to 2014 and access to linked articles from several publications, which helps when a good pick sits behind a paywall.
