When reader was killed off it marked the beginning of clickbait articles and shitty news blogpost.
Before I could simply subscribe to my favorite website RSS feeds. After we had to rely on goddamn algorithms
Check out Feedly - it's not Google Reader, but it's also not terrible either.
Yeah, Feedly is great. Been using it for years and very happy with it.
It's kind of a bummer that RSS never took off the way it deserved. It is kind of a precursor to what we have now with Fediverse/ActivityPub.
Seriously, I've been preaching about RSS for decades. I subscribe to so many news feeds from sites all over the world. I always tell people how awesome it is to see 50 different spins on every news event that happens in the world. It gives me a real unique perspective on the world at large as opposed to getting my news from a few limited sources.
