I probably gave up on using a feed reader about then. Instead, I subscribe a few things I care about by email, and hear about some things passively through social media.
The idea is that I can't keep with via email, I don't have time for it. For a while, I used "feed to email" for the services that didn't offer an email subscription, but I've since let that go.
Now I feel like I don't have time for "one more place for news" to add back a feed reader into the mix.
But I'm open to being convinced I should give Feedly or something else a try!
- zimmund 4y agoI tried several alternatives (including one which tried to be exactly like Reader), but I didn't get used to them. Up until then I always knew what was happening in tech and global news. Since Reader was killed I ended up relying on news websites and I find features by accident, not because I read updates on blogs/media. I feel I got disconnected from the bleeding edge of the web that day.
- ink_13 4y agoIt's interesting you should say that, because I was up and running on an alternative platform pretty quick. RSS was and is so core to how I gather and consume information from the web that I'd be considerably unhappier without it.
