If you allowed me to import an OPML file to get a sense for how this would work for my feed I'd check it out, but requiring a login before I can do anything real is kind of a non-starter.

You seem to be lumping conservatives and libertarians into the same group, but I think that's a mistake. I agree with your description as it pertains to libertarians, but conservatives tend to recognize as Christians who recognize certain deficiencies of humans and look to a higher power as a source of rule and law.

Yeah so we didn't want to build out anything that invades your inbox, for privacy concerns, I know I would not feel comfortable with that.

So we've curated a ton of the top newsletters and made the process of adding them to the platform super easy. You just subscribe to them within Scrollz. If you sign up and have any that you're missing we can get them added in no time!

I'm not a big fan of reading interviews, so I preferred reading the linked article that was referenced from April 13:
