    Hi, I find it is hard to keep up with the excellent blogs and community news in the ME community, so I programmed a webpage that automatically aggregates different articles from high quality sources.

    Here’s the URL:
    https://me-cfs.github.io/news/community/

    This is automatically programmed, and uses a predefined list of sources, with some exclusion words for specific sources.

    Here are the sources that are currently showing up:
    • Every new S4ME weekly news in brief
    • Trial by Error
    • ME/CFS Research Review
    • Thoughts about ME (Jeannette Burmeister)
    • The Canary*
    • ME/CFS Skeptic
    • The Science Bit*
    • Long COVID Advocacy*
    • The Sick Times*
    • Edzard Ernst’s Blog*
    • Making Sense of ME/CFS
    The * indicates that not all new posts for this source are automatically added but that they are filtered for specific keywords to try and ensure the content is relevant.

    Hopefully this is useful for someone. If you have any ideas or feedback feel free to share. Unfortunately I won’t necessarily be able to implement anything new as this webpage was made a while ago back when I was better, I just decided to share now.

    Also, if anyone gets their news via RSS, here’s an RSS feed.

    Looks useful, thanks. Are you a hobby coder or do you have a professional background?

    Was studying a related subject in uni when I got hit by the illness and had to drop out.
