Someone wanting to subscribe to the YT-channel? I don't visit 500+ blogs per day just to check if there's something new. I do miss Google Reader, I think about it almost every single day, I tried using other tools but I really think the RSS-era is over.
Maybe I’m doing it wrong but RSS works just fine most of the time for me. I use NewsBlur and does everything I need and more. What did reader have that no other RSS service doesn’t?
There was an alternate timeline where RSS went on to prosper. Instead it turned out like OpenID - a standard most aren't really using and it's all just SSO instead.
If you're on a smartphone, the Youtube app probably works better than whatever browser you're using. On the flip side, it probably has ads.
FWIW me and my family have the ReVanced apps and we never see any ads.
