Article on Techcrunch: "RSS is undead". First line: "RSS died"

I've become a lot more jaded about tech takes by tech magazines after Mastodon. RSS never died it's just not trendy enough that you hear people talk about it. Every WordPress blog on the net has an RSS feed. Every webcomic. Every news site. Including Techcrunch.

Webcomic RSS feeds are usually useless though.

In the glory days of RSS, the content was in the feed. Webcomic artists, insecure about their audience size, as artists often are, were the first to force you to click through.

There are a few that still put content in the feed, but they're the exception, not the rule.
