Set up a search like:
~artistname ~artistname ~artistname order:id id:>0Add in the artists you want to watch. You'll get all of their posts in the order they were posted, oldest to newest. Decide on a starting point (or just take the most recent one if you want to start from today), replace the 0 at the end with the ID of that post, and bookmark it.
When you want to check for new stuff, open the bookmark, and you'll see all posts by those artists that came after the one you took the ID from. Browse as you please, and when you get to the end, copy the ID of the most recent post, replace the ID in your search, and update the bookmark.
Also works for any search that isn't artist names, too, obviously.
I used to do that, but after X number of ~artistname it basically didn't accept any more.... In fact that's exactly why I stopped using that method because I had so many ~artistname that the bookmark url looked like an Amazon affiliate link. Still, thanks for the tip!
Where can I find more information about keywords like
order:id id:>0?I'd just set up multiple bookmarks with groups of artists in each one, grouped by style or usual content.
There's a 'search help' link next to the search bar that has info on all of the weird tags you can use; it links to this guide.
