I agree! RSS is kind of a magical thing, that's only really happened a few times - the widespread implementation of a standard that provides a better user experience at the cost of somewhat less control for content owners. My headline is in response to certain voices in the industry which seem to be rooting for the end of RSS in favor of proprietary APIs - essentially, the YouTube-ization of podcasts. There's lots to unpack there, and to a certain extent it seems likely that more things will move away from open standards, but I'd prefer to hold the line to the best of our ability.
