  • RSS (Really Simple Syndication) lets you subscribe to site feeds and receive new article notifications.
  • RSS is an open and simple format, encouraging publishers to syndicate content for customized reading.
  • Podcasts rely on RSS for syndication, and it’s a great alternative to social media feeds.

Catching up on the news means either dodging paywalls on traditional media sites, or wading through toxic comments on social media, right? Wrong: there’s another way. RSS has been keeping us informed for over two decades, and it’s as relevant today as ever.”
