RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it is a simple, standardized content distribution method that can help you stay up-to-date with your favorite newscasts, blogs, websites, and social media channels. Instead of visiting sites to find new posts or subscribing to sites to receive notification of new posts, find the RSS feed on a website and read new posts in an RSS reader.
Do you use RSS to curate your own information feed? Looking to expand my sources to include different perspectives and new interesting topics and would love any suggestions.
Yep! There’s a community here for recommendations related to RSS too! !rssfeeds@lemmy.world
I’ve recently realized that I may also want a different desktop app (so not necessarily involving a server) for reading RSS feeds than what I’ve been using. Was trying to use Thunderbird for this for the convenience of email/calendar/RSS, but I have this feeling that it may not be able to adequately handle some of the variations I’ve seen cropping up with some sites’ RSS (which may be those sites mucking it up more than anything to do with Thunderbird tbh but not sure).
