Ah my mistake, I did not know that change was made.

Last time I checked, they were using DDOS Protection from Cloudflare which breaks all federation with them. Until that stops, it will not work.
I've been using Bazqux Reader since it's a single guy and seems to work well. I also know that Tiny Tiny RSS is a super cool self hostable one.
Of course, and if you really like his stuff, I would follow his adage, "Books are made out of other books", and start reading McCarthys inspirations. Melville, Faulkner, and Flannery O'Connor among many others.
At least for me, that option doesn't seem to work most of the time.
6749 now, so the number is definitely going down. Hopefully some of the big fish still hold firm.
I think you're primed for the Border Trilogy. All the Pretty Horses is a wonderful book and The Crossing is considered one of his best. If you're feeling like reading something more Faulknerian, his earlier work would be great. Child of God is a shortish read and it definitely leaves an impact on the reader, Outer Dark also being in that same vein.
Finished up my reread of Dune and onto Dune Messiah. I also have House of Leaves and Beckett Molloy trilogy in the wings to start at some point.
have you tried defederating and federating again?
Y'arr! I hope this shall be a safer port of call than Reddit.
