There is on issue, RSS is advert and cookie free. Meaning it creates a clean web, but as such prevents monetization, so I guess it was not suitable technology.
But on the other hand there are many blogs that do not care about Google Ads or similar, so it would be interesting to revamp RSS again.
- hutattedonmyarm 5y agoI follow a few monetized feeds. They’re usually one of: - One post per week, showcasing the sponsor - Embedding a static image into every feed entry for their current sponsor - Adding a text-based „this post is sponsored by“ sentence/paragraph to every post For me personally they’re fair tradeoffs
- NiceWayToDoIT 5y agoThat is interesting, so I guess tracking engagement would be only through RSS feed access statistic?
- LargoLasskhyfv 5y agoNothing forbade the RSS providers to deliver adverts as RSS. Which some did, as I recall, because it annoyed me.
