I was as annoyed as the next person when Google killed Reader but, to be honest, RSS was killed off for typical users way before that when browser manufacturers dropped/hid support for it. I still use RSS every day, as do many of our customers.

- eloisant 11y agoNot just browsers, but Facebook and Twitter both killed their RSS feed at some point. That's much worse than Google killing Reader, because reader is just a reader, you can still switch to a different one. If the source doesn't provide an RSS feed, there's not much you can do.
