If you love RSS, embrace Atom 1.0 :) Its the final modern form of RSS.

Yeah, I've been writing software that provides feeds for RSS, but I exclusively use Atom. It's just a better format. It does create ambiguity when using a site like this because I'm not sure if my sites will qualify as having an RSS 2.0 feed or not.

Atom was killed by podcasts. Tbh RSS 2.0 is good enough

Atom's problem is that RSS is also the final modern form of RSS.
