Completely agree with this approach. Nowadays when I come across interesting articles, podcasts, videos, etc I add them to collections. When a collection is mature enough I'll start actually reading through them. I find that when I dive into a topic repeatedly across a couple of days (in contrast to doing shallow dives in a much larger array of topics) things just feel... more meaningful. I'm more interested and I feel better able to have an in-depth conversation around those topics
Unfortunately this model of media digest can be really hard to maintain. Especially given that the entire media industry is very strongly moving in the opposite direction.
I wish there was better tools out there to organize reading lists like these, but I haven't found much and I haven't had much of a chance to actually finish one of the many related projects I've started. Maybe some day
