    RSS is one of the oldest protocols existing. Basically it’s like a feed with links to things posted…

    I’d suggest you start with Feedly or Inoreader, make an account and take a look.

    For me, it means that I can see notifications (Inoreader) telling me how many unread items have occurred across the 79 websites I added as feeds.

    • I have a folder for ‘Fediverse’ with feeds like Lemmy - ukraine (also Reddit’s r/ukraine).

    • I have a ‘Linux’ folder, containing a few interesting blogs - like Niccolo’s KDE developer blog, a few news sites, plus announcements from my OS forum.

    • I have a ‘News’ folder with various sources (one is a journalist I know with a Facebook page - as I don’t use Facebook).

    • I have a ‘Video’ folder

    • I have a ‘Time Waster’ folder which has things like Digg, WindowSwap, Drive & Listen

    Basically, any time you make an account and request updates from a website, the same can be done with NO account and simply copying the RSS link.

    It gives you updates on things you don’t need to bother bookmarking or opening to follow.

      I’m still bitter about bloglines shutting down. I tried thisoldreader and inoreader but it never felt the same. Then I found reddit.
