Reclaiming RSS
“Before Twitter, before algorithmic timelines filtered our reality for us, before surveillance capitalism, there was RSS: Really Simple Syndication … As we move away from the centralised web to the peer web, it’s time to rediscover, re-embrace, and reclaim RSS.”
@aral RSS is only relevant to blogs, and blogs aren't the Web. Blogs *ruined* the Web.
@starbreaker @aral I'm loving the links you shared though - and I'll admit I'm fairly unique among folk I know who still bother with RSS.
@starbreaker @aral I was prepared to ignore a post with the title “How the Blog Broke the Web” but it turned out to be an interesting read. I don’t agree with the main point, but it was interesting none the less. Thanks for the link.
You're welcome.
@starbreaker @aral are they? 90% of the RSS feeds I subscribe to are for commits to repositories, notifications from issue trackers, and website service outage alerts.
