I just follow “literature news”, where whatever is exciting in the literature, or just corresponds to someone’s hobby horse inevitably shows up. I’m pretty happy to have found sources that align well with my tastes

This is fantastic. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to new music that just strung a chord (hah) so immediately. Thank you for sharing.

And for your other question, input has worked for me at least. Learning German this last year, I’ve almost become a full believer in the input hypothesis. I think as long as you just consume a shit ton of content, at the right level, you will get better.
In my experience, hunkering down to just read books (on my level!) has helped my fluency way more than outputting has. Reading is awesome, because it is simply the fastest way to consume content, reading is faster than listening after all.
Yes it’s bad. If people begin wearing clothes at a nude beach, it won’t be a nude beach for very long.
