I fancy myself fairly tech savvy. I managed to figure out this Lemmy thing, lol.

For whatever reason I’ve never really understood how an RSS thing works. I guess I’ve just never been compelled to figure it out.

My main point is that the kinds of people who were/are getting all their news from Meta probably couldn’t figure out RSS either.

Seems like a good idea though. I might have to finally dig in to it.

An RSS feed is like having someone email you a link everytime they publish something. So you can have a bunch of news outlets all in the same feed (or inbox in the analogy) and have one place for all the content.

I used to use them for research papers. Everytime a paper was published by a journal I had selected, it showed up in the feed.
