Right after I cataloged most of my independent media subscriptions, The Verge launched their own subscription plan, including a full-text RSS feed. The Verge is the rare media properties that is fully comfortable being its own thing on its own website and they produce some of the best journalism and insightful analysis of the tech industry.

While I don’t know that I’d consider Vox Media independent in the same way as journalist-owned/community-funded outlets like 404 Media, Defector, or Escape Collective, The Verge is essential coverage of the tech industry and culture and II’m happy to support it directly.
