I’ve been getting back into RSS feeds so I could follow news sources and blogs of people I know without an algorithm dictating what I see like all the news apps you get these days. You just gave me some real cool resources to add. Thanks!
I didn’t appreciate RSS enough back when it was a hot new thing, now in these days of the algorithmic internet it’s a blessing and a relief.
I really like Mastodon as a platform for the largely same reason. It’s “neutral” with its chronological feeds and you control what you see, especially if you run an instance.
Saw a post recently that sums it up nicely and could equally apply to RSS: “On Mastodon the content is the product and you’re the algorithm.”
