I receive numerous newsletters in my email inbox. I’d wager they comprise around 95% of my email usage.
Here are my top 5 favorites:
1. Garbage Day
Garbage Day, founded by Ryan Broderick, covers everything online. It’s the only newsletter I pay for.
2. Installer
I look forward to the Installer newsletter by David Pierce every Saturday. I love trying out new apps and workflows.
3. Yahoo Sports AM
I’ve followed Kendall Baker since his days at Axios, where he wrote the best sports newsletter. His move to Yahoo excited me, and Yahoo Sports AM didn’t disappoint. It remains a must-read every morning for sports enthusiasts.
4. User Mag
Another favorite tech and online culture publication isUser Mag by Taylor Lorenz. It features exclusive reporting, interviews, and insights. My favorite section is “What I’m Reading,” with its excellent article recommendations. I’m close to subscribing.
5. Morning Brew
Morning Brew is my longest-running subscription on this list. It’s the best morning newsletter, covering essential topics while offering interesting insights and links.
Honorable Mentions
-
Snaxshots - I highly recommend Snaxshots, its very close to making the top 5. Andrea Hernández expertly curates the food and beverage space, predicting emerging trends. Follow her on Instagram for snack meme dumps.

Palm Report, an offshoot of the Poolsuite music app this used to be amazing but they went to a pay model and really limited what is in the free version. That said it’s good enough I have been going back and forth on paying and he did just add a new contributor. Once again the good life beckons.
