I use a feed reader, so I check out almost all the posts and links. I click through to the comments on almost all of them as well, since that’s the real point.
The reddit /r/slatestarcodex community is very active too, and I like that.
If you don’t mind more questions… Which feed reader? Also do you look mostly for activity? Do you know of places with good quality/noise ratios, even if they are not very active?
I use Inoreader which is paid and web-based, but has browser plugins. I wouldn’t say I “mostly” look for activity, since time is limited. The Open Thread on slatestarcodex.com is extremely active, I think it gets about 200 comments per day, but I don’t frequently browse it. Slate Star Codex and Less Wrong are the only actual “communities” in my feed reader. The others that are directly or tangentially related are blogs, and most blogs don’t really engender that much discussion.
