Reddit and Lemmy are essentially those, with the benefits of also
supporting discussion, voting, and moderation.

One of the things on my "when I have more focused time someday" list (or,
realistically, see if anyone else wants to pick it up) is to organize
selected links into something more like maps and trails. It makes sense to
keep those on a wiki so people can update it. It's not just about recency
or popularity, or even the rough categorization I do in Emacs News. It's
more like saying, okay, this week there have been a couple of interesting
links about Emacs Lisp testing. They could be added to something that can
point people to those, Cask, ERT, Buttercup, etc. in a way that makes it
easier for people to figure out how things relate to each other or what to
try when.

Searching through the index.org in Emacs News just lets you work with
categories, URLs, and titles. I think there's an opportunity to make more
sense of things, but I don't think I'll have focus time for at least
another year. :) No worries if it sounds too vague - someone (maybe me)
will probably get to it someday!

Also, there's some space between the weekly Emacs News and the yearly Emacs
News Highlights I put together for EmacsConf. If someone wants to do a
monthly highlights thing (kind of like how This Month in Org is awesome!),
that might be neat too.

There's always helping out by writing up something you've learned or
experimented with recently. All skill levels welcome!

All sorts of non-code ways to help the community get even more connected! :)
