More from Luis I really like, this time on #RSS:
“Let’s talk about the best way to access all these feeds. My preferred and recommended approach is using a feed reader.
When subscribing to content on the open web, feed readers are your secret weapon.
RSS might seem like it’s dead (it’s not—yet). In fact, it’s the reason you often hear the phrase, “Wherever you get your podcasts.” But RSS goes beyond podcasts. It’s widely supported by blogs, newsletters, and even social platforms like the Fediverse (Mastodon, PeerTube, etc.) and BlueSky. It’s also how I’m able to compile my starter packs.
I’ve written more about RSS in Rediscovering the RSS Protocol, but the short version is this: when you build on open standards like RSS and OPML, you’re building on freedom. Freedom to use the tools that work best for you. Freedom to own your experience. And freedom to support a healthier, more independent web.”
