My impression is many new bloggers are among the ones who have never heard about RSS.

I suspect that's right... But what have they replaced it with?

And I mean that in both directions. I've always consumed more RSS than I've generated and it's still my primary source for tech news. Do they just rely on service-level federation? Seems pretty sad.

I imagine they use Twitter as RSS.

This is my impression as well. Social media and newsletters.

Those bloggers most likely use social feeds.
