I'm guessing they think that social media and a subscription email newsletter are adequate replacements. But they are not.

- criddell 5y agoWe can't really know looking in from the outside. Presumably they know how often their newsletters are sent out and how many social media followers they have and how often the RSS feed is pulled.
- TacoSteemers 5y agoI do believe that online feed readers will only pull the feed once per x minutes for all their subscribers, instead of pulling the feed n times per x minutes. For example, all of Feedly's subscribers will only count for one pull.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI was thinking accidental denial of service attack by badly scripted bot crawling their site every 15 minutes was an adequate replacement, but they didn't agree with that.
