Tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of the end of Google Reader. So I tried to figure out what went wrong, and wound up with a story about a better social internet we could have had and instead threw into the trash https://www.theverge.com/23778253/google-reader-death-2013-rss-social
Who killed Google Reader?

Google killed Reader in 2013, shutting down its RSS reader after years of neglect. Now, the team that built it reflects on what they made and how the web has changed in the decade since.

@davidpierce So, 3days old? I came here after reading your latest piece - Where are we all supposed to go now? Thought I'd be able to boost it, yeah RT, like we used to do on Twitter, and NOTHING! Verge also contribute to the mayhem, because you don't give us an app to sign into - if we want to join in the comments (a la YouTube) we have to "Sign in & Join" - duh? But then Verge isn't trying to be social is it? Not even for money & ratings? I think, like we got used to subs for streaming.....
