Who uses RSS and for what? Nobody I know uses it
- waste_monk 3y agoHave you ever used it? It used to be a really nice way to consume content... instead of having to check every blog/webcomic/whatever individually, you could have a folder of RSS feeds in your browser and sweep over them to see at a glance if anything new had been posted. Or you could have a dedicated RSS reader that would do stuff for you such as archiving content for offline use, search indexing, etc. I am still deeply annoyed that RSS has fallen out of popular use.
- rchaud 3y agoIf you have ever used a podcast app, you've used RSS. The exception being if your only podcast listening is through private apps like Spotify.
- myaccountonhn 3y agoI've recently converted to it and can't believe I didn't sooner. It's a very nice way to get news from different sources. I started to use it after getting off reddit, and now have it to receive the latest news from Hackernews, pl discourses, lemmy communities and more.
