馃嚜馃嚭 Paul Schoonhoven 馃崑馃崏@RolfBly I love my favourite rss feeds in my mastodon timeline. 馃槀
Luc 
@RolfBly Incidentally, a bit. Still experimenting with it
JagroNL@RolfBly @krijnsoeteman still only few of those sources are available on mastodon
Frank Heijkamp@RolfBly At the moment mostly the service updates of my internet access provider and hosting provider. For news I have several apps that could alert me, but I choose to mute most notifications.
Ms. Denie@RolfBly yep, I was one of the feedly migrants when Google Reader was discontinued.
I'm not bitter about that, she said bitterly
Moz@RolfBly I use TheOldReader for about ...150 feeds. phys.org is probably the businest and the biggest single source likely blogspot (20-odd blogs hosted there that I subscribe to feeds from).
thespinoff.co.nz is one of the few media outlets with decent feeds and IIRC they have a separate "paid subscriber" one (I pay, I set it up ages ago, it works so I haven't looked at it)
Hasan Ali@RolfBly I鈥檇 like to! Do you have app recommendations for iOS?
Analog@RolfBly I actually never figured out how to do this back when I wanted to
Cocaine Owlbear@RolfBly kind of? At least I used to a lot. I mostly use RSS for podcasts these days though. I really should get back into it.
Hippo 馃崏@RolfBly *at the moment* I'm waiting for 
#NewsFlash to get packaged for 
#Debian (or to find the time to package it myself) but yep in general I'm an RSS person 馃檪

Katharina Langenohl@RolfBly Fr眉her ja, am PC. Jetzt sitze ich mehr am Smartphone.
Health Is Wealth@RolfBly IMO The web is an absolute mess & having to navigate ridiculous amounts of tick box/slider options just to tell each website not to track me is infuriating to say the least. I've learned over the years to rely on RSS feeds to filter out just the news/sites I want to be updated on. With me using different GUIs/OSes, my preferences are Newsbeuter (terminal based), Feeder (LineageOS Phone) & NewsFlash (Ubuntu desktop). All feeds can be backed up/imported/exported using the .opml format :)

now on shonk.phite.ro@RolfBly the 3% who voted "what?" made me sad
Justin@RolfBly Love me RSS!
If you weren't aware of it, Google alerts https://www.google.com/alerts has a neat feature where you can define search terms for specific things and get the alerts in an RSS feed as they become indexed on Google search.
So you're getting, basically, the "bleeding edge" of new content for keywords you want to track.
This is great for keeping updated with local news stories mentioning your city, or new blog posts that discuss some tool you particularly like.
Simon Brooke@RolfBly Only audio podcasts, curiously. Should use RSS more for interesting blogs.
Calle@RolfBly Does a podcast player count?
Scott Williams 馃惂@RolfBly Yes, but mainly to get software update and security errata notices from various places.
William McCormick@RolfBly I need to get back to using RSS I miss it. I should have never moved away from it.
Sorry@RolfBly I like rss feeds because they let me keep track of web comics in one place
Axel@RolfBly Am always looking for new and interesting RSS feeds, here is a screenshots of the ones that i have so far.
jobelenus@RolfBly @vmbrasseur I used to. Haven鈥檛 in years.
Larvitz 
@RolfBly I use RSS feeds via Mastodon with https://rss-parrot.net/
monocyte@RolfBly i use feeder on android for about 70 feeds, i like the fact that i can sync what i read across my tablet and phone.
Aroop Roelofs@RolfBly Even made a little job in my "personal assistant" that will get the feeds for me and display them on my "new tab" page.

@RolfBly I do now, thanks to the fediverse! I really thought it was long gone. After thinking of writing a reader, I just got Feedly and am loving it.
mnemonicoverload@RolfBly If you mean use RSS in general, big yes. If you mean using RSS specifically to read Fediverse posts, no that's not something I've explored yet despite knowing it's a thing.
Joe@RolfBly only with Podcasts.
Bram Diederik aka daft_dutch
lachlan slowly taming rust@RolfBly Really wish there was a fediverse RSS reader so I could subscribe to my RSS feeds, and have them show up on my Mastodon timeline.
Seriously looked at writing one.
Seriously looked at writing one.
Terrabull@RolfBly only with my smartphone and with the "RSS Reader" Android App of Svyatoslav Vasilev
Approxamatrix@RolfBly I'm subscribed to about 23 feeds using the Feeder app on Android
Neil 
@RolfBly The RSS Parrot is a brilliant tool, long may it last
馃劘 CarlOS@RolfBly yes. It's a pity that many sites have stopped maintaining RSS feeds 馃ゲ
Solarbird 
@RolfBly do Mastodon accounts fed by RSS count? because if so yes, otherwise no.
Iban Nieto@RolfBly rss is one of the best things of the Internet. I can't live without it 馃
enmodo 鈿涳笍 馃К 馃嚭馃嚘 馃崏@RolfBly no but I have fond memories of doing so before Google and antisocial media destroyed the blogosphere and polite society.
AngharadHafod@RolfBly I used to use Firefox live bookmarks, which was RSS based. Then they inexplicably stopped live bookmarks. Although it was later reintroduced I'd lost what I had and never got back into it.
