I ditched rss readers a long time ago and refuse to use any service with an 'unread' counter except email.

- disgruntledphd2 15y agoI actually find RSS extremely useful for keeping up on scientific journals and blogs. For instance, there's no way I'll check every journal that might have papers of interest to me, but if I subscribe then I'll get thirty papers or so every month. If i haven't seen anything of interest in a few issues (or blog posts) then I remove it. I also subscribe to R bloggers, stats.stackexchange.com and the R tag on Stackoverflow. I've learned a huge amount from these sites, and for me RSS is a way to avoid pointlessly surfing news/political/science sites for hours. YMMV.
- zalew 15y agocould you link me those sci journals and blogs? they'll be useful for a side project I'm working on.
