The plumbing of the fediverse v1.0. Still working great despite years of neglect.
But such a terrible name. Only a bunch of basement-dwelling geeks could have come up with this impenetrable jargony acronym “RSS”. I really think that if they had consulted some human beings and called it Webfeeds instead, more people might be using it today.
Podcasts are RSS feeds, and those are still super popular.
Yeah but I always feel that that’s almost an accident and so it’s on borrowed time. Hardly anybody understands how the plumbing works and the big platforms are trying as hard as they can to abstract away the XML files until they can find a way to privatize the whole thing.
