Where? Not within the homelab space.

They probably meant it hyperbolically, but RSS was on a downward slope during that period. The recent uptick is fascinating.

I must add that I self-host FreshRSS to fetch news and GitHub repos updates so I can update my stuff, everything in-house, controlled by me.

RSS makes life so much easier, some only provide the bare minimal while others, provide the whole post so I can read everything right there without opening a website.

Also, some podcast support it so I have a list of podcast that I list and can go back without having to go from website to website.

One place to govern them all, RSS still king.
