Advertising RSS feeds is also a good way to reach back and replace substack. People have forgotten them but they still work just as much as before. I've dug up Reeder that is still kicking after all these years.
RSS is dead tech.
How is it dead tech if everything still works, apps are still being made and websites still publish feeds? Literally every Substack and such has an rss it's so easy that most websites have it without knowing and don't link it but it works anyway
Considering it's shipped by default on the fedi, on ghost, discourse, bsky and loads of other very hot upcoming and established tools, it's very much alive. Just because xitter and facebook and google failed to find a way to monetize it and therefore tried to kill it doesn't make it dead.
