I’m liking it so far. One thing that I noticed is that, by default, when you add a new source (person, Youtube channel, etc.), it asks you what category that source should go it. Mastodon’s web UI has the multi-column layout, and you can use that to categorize people you follow, but I always end up forgetting to do that. Seems like Surf makes categories the first thing you do, rather than an optional thing you do later. I think I’m going to like this more organized feed based around topics.

Not super fan of this hiding basic settings behind a future paid subscription:
Since it does RSS I’d like to be able to import an opml of my feeds like any other aggregator does.
I like the idea but not super impressed so far.
