Social media criticism shapes housing investment debate and RSS resurgence

Two opinion pieces examine the influence of digital platforms on different sectors. One argues that social‑media echo chambers intensify polarization around housing policy, contrasting views that blame investors and funds versus those that see private investment as part of the solution. It promotes a "build‑to‑rent" model as a public‑good approach.

The other reflects on the decline of RSS aggregators and the author's personal shift away from mainstream social networks toward open‑source content feeds, citing concerns over attention loss and the desire for more curated information streams.
