Watch out! Some of the Feed links are either broken, not updated or missing. Also all the Feed links are http, not https, use whatever you want.
Also the order of the links is merely alphabetical based on how they show in my feed reader, so it’s easier for me to update it from time to time.
Sites marked with ๐ท๐ด are written mainly in Romanian. Sites with ๐ท๐ด* are sometimes in Romanian.
I started this list thinking about the really nice sites I used to read in the RSS Reader and the nice blogs I was following.
While some are very interesting resources, some are just plain fun and time wasters. Enjoy!
