But reading blog posts from this file feels boring and forced in a way that browsing blog posts from Hacker News does not.

I (and surely many others) have similar problem; one thing that helps a bit is using Pocket app - it's a much nicer reading experience than "this file"; reading things in Notepad is aesthetically aversive. (I also occasionally use VoiceDream, that integrates with pocket and does decent text2speech, so you can listen to the posts when walking etc.)
