I was referring more to the people around me who are outside tech. Based on interactions with friends and family, I’d guess that a little over 50% know what a bookmark is, around 25% actually use bookmarks, fewer than 5% know what RSS is in very general terms and I know only one other person who actually has any RSS subscriptions.

I know people who work in IT who have never heard of RSS!

Just thinking about how far we have to go and how badly trained people are sometimes makes me want to cry. And I’m just a hobbyist; what must I be missing out on?
