What is your solution to “follow” other HN users?

I don't do this much, but I do keep an HN-specific text file with among other things links--like links to profiles I need or want to reference for some reason. The text editor will handle the link-opening.

Sometimes I use RSS for things, but that's mostly non-HN people. It's almost a different world. Mainstream tech blogs, TTRPG and wargaming bloggers, deals, etc. This also requires a lot of active feed organization and updating that I don't have tons of time for, and I find it's more annoying than using a text editor.

For what purpose?
