Likes Curate your own newspaper with RSS by Molly White.

Readers no longer see news articles from the journalists they chose to follow on Twitter as the site downranks any posts that link offsite. When they search on Google, they’re bombarded with error-ridden AI facsimiles before reaching the higher-quality underlying work. 

I enjoyed listening to the podcast version, feeling smug as a long time RSS reader. Spells out lots of new reasons for using RSS. Watching Ewan Macintosh use NetNewsWire on a train, before Wifi on trains, before smart phones, changed my digital life. I though then it might change everyone’s, maybe still will?
