Corporations are usually the place where I can most easily find RSS feeds. I can easily find RSS feeds for newspapers, press releases, status of services, etc.

The problem is individuals. Individuals tend to publish on hosts which just are incompatible with RSS (because they are 'platforms' with other goals, like Twitter), or self-host without RSS (yes, happens). Platforms which have automatic RSS generation are a minority in terms of users (and BTW Wordpress and Medium are also 'corporate person silos', save for perhaps self-hosted WP).
An example of this irony is that Twitter itself publishes RSS feeds for their investor news -- https://investor.twitterinc.com/rss-feeds/default.aspx https://investor.twitterinc.com/rss-feeds/default.aspx -- yet fails to provide RSS feeds for their actual user content.
Personally I do not assign much value in following the opinions of individuals, so I am still primarily an RSS user. But lately even e.g. political parties tend to publish in these silos and forget about RSS.
