I think the issue here is that you're comparing RSS with Social Media only as a consumer. But in Social Media you're also producing content and interacting with other users, and also watching interactions between users, that's for me a big difference between RSS and Social Media too.
RSS for me it's like reading the news paper, while Social Media would be to go to a bar with some friends and talk about the news/hot topic of the moment. They cover different needs.
- lostmsu 6y agoBetter social media has RSS, which I use extensively: Reddit, blogs, this very website.
- wasdfff 6y agoYou can also follow youtube via RSS. Even twitter via RSS.
- kossmoboleat 6y agoI've spent some time to find a way to turn my twitter timeline into an RSS feed. It seemed like a lot of work to me. Which approach do you favor? It's relatively easy find solutions to produce RSS feeds from individual twitter users, but I'd like to read my whole timeline in the RSS reader. There's one tool called [twitter-to-rss](https://github.com/ankitshekhawat/twitter-to-rss https://github.com/ankitshekhawat/twitter-to-rss), but I haven't tried it and it might be outdated.
