The HTML in email isn't modern HTML+CSS. IIRC due to Outlook and backwards-compatibility, it's out of date.
The author is saying that RSS readers render the content using older HTML standards. I don't know if that's true, but that's how I read their statement.
- thrashh 4y agoTrying to get an up to date web browser embedded in an application is difficult. The people who make web browsers make their components first most for their web browser, not for embedding in other peoples’ projects. Usually you can find some web browser that you can embed in your application but it won’t be up to date because there is no money in maintaining it.

- thrashh 4y agoOK but even sometimes finding an up-to-date HTML renderer can be hard. Very few people are out there packaging up-to-date webpage renderers into easy to use libraries. Many times you end up using the one built-in to your UI toolkits and those are often very neglected.
