If you don’t use rss, just say you don’t use rss. I assure you that many of us do. It continues to deliver me hundreds of articles from dozens of sources day after day, decade after decade. my services that check rss, continue to run their automated tasks. It’s an amazing protocol and even when big corpos try and take it away, hacks come up to restore access.

RSS is the technological backbone that enables the distribution and subscription of podcasts...which by the way is massive at the moment.

As others have stated, plenty of websites have RSS feeds.

RSS is alive and well. I use it daily with dozens of sites and authors. It's incredibly useful, widely used, and well supported.

Finding content is the issue. Unless I go directly to each site every day and scan for new articles I'm likely to miss them. If not for aggregators and RSS how else would this be accomplished?

RSS isn't dead. I use it daily. Most podcasts — all if you subscribe to the philosophy that mp3s without rss aren't podcasts — are built on it. Most websites still provide a feed, even if the owner isn't aware of it.

Most news sites have RSS feeds. Wordpress ships with an RSS feed.

And for sites that don't you can make your own feeds by selecting links on pages (such as how AP News doesn't have an RSS feed).

Hmm ironically it's how I'm reading this rn
