I still think RSS is a great way of encapsulating data in a format that's almost equally human- and machine-readable, regardless of how "smart" you want your aggregation to be.
- broscillator 3y agoI wish I had a use for RSS, but the few websites I actively read, I enjoy their design, not just their content, and the rest is on YT. Maybe I lack imagination in how RSS could help me beyond being a collection of articles unified under a common GUI. If you want to provide details on how you use it I'd be glad to read it.
