It is really hard do find good blogs, especially the ones I like. Here is a curated list of my favorite blogs:

• Protesilaos Stavrou: Prot is a well known member of the emacs community, he is also a very unique person. He lives alone in a poor area in the mountains, with just a few hours of electricity if there is sun, and maintains various emacs packages. He has an education in philosophy and a youtube channel where he mainly talks about emacs, philosophy and him building his modest house. There is really a lot to learn from a person like him.
• Sacha chua: Very frequent writer and another famous face in the emacs community. I read her posts basically everyday, lots of interesting stuff especially if you are interested in emacs and random trivias about packages.
• Julio Merino: I found him on hackernews and It really fitted my interests. The guy talks about low level programming / hardware and he is very knowledgeable about it, one of the true OGs. I find all of his blogs really interesting and with an old school feel.
• Salvatore Sanfilippo: Finally some Italian here! Salvatore is an exceptional programmer and the founder of Redis. He is always very interesting to listen to, he has a youtube channel and often has strong opinions about software and work life, which I admire.
• LWN : The main medium for talking about the linux kernel other than the mailing lists, LWN is a very important website in the history and development of the linux community.
• Eli Bendersky: Very interesting, he often delves into math which I really enjoy.
• Phoronix: The best news site for linux kernel related things, after LWN. I noticed that whenever I was looking for benchmarks, the best were always from a certain Michael Larabel, so I dig deeper and discovered his website and his software to do benchmarking, which is totally awesome.
• Brendan Gregg: Very competent programmer focusing on performance evaluation. He created the flamegraph tool.
• Vaxry: This is the blog of the creator of Hyprland. Even if I don't use hyprland anymore, he is a true gigachad and most of the development of Hyprland was carried by him alone.
• Arxiv: This isn't really a blog, but Its a scientific publications website. I am subscribed to some subjects and I regularly read It. It's my main source of catching up with the state of the art.
• Other programmers: kebingal, Colin Percival, Paul Graham
• Great Mathematicians / Scientists I follow: Math ∩ Programming, Terence Tao, Stephen Wolfram, Azimuth.

And many many more, those are only a few honorable mentions. I will try to keep this list up to date.

To discover blogs, what I usually do is:

• browse hackernews daily
• stalker people in mailing lists / open source projects that I follow
• look at indieblog sometimes
• in general, be curious about the people behind the code, and assume that every decent programmer has a blog

I use gnus as my feeds aggregator.
