According to Google Trends, during the past few years, there has been nothing but a few minor bumps that faded away as quickly as they came. I love RSS because i do not have to scroll through dozens of different news sites all day and i would love it to return.

EDIT: Typical case of people only reading the headline. I was asking why people are hyped over something that did NOT happen.

The big platforms have gotten a lot worse.

Twitter went fascist.
Canadians can't share news articles on Facebook.
Reddit self-owned.

Canadians can blame their government for that

Blame? Fuck Facebook, the less relevant it is the better.
