Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance?
(lemmy.world)
According to Google Trends, during the past few years, there has been nothing but a few minor bumps that faded away as quickly as they came. I love RSS because i do not have to scroll through dozens of different news sites all day and i would love it to return.
EDIT: Typical case of people only reading the headline. I was asking why people are hyped over something that did NOT happen.
There's always an "algorithm" that's biasing things though.
If you just grab the recent headlines from ABC, BBC or CBC in chronological order you're still getting your feed biased by what news directors choosing is worth covering. With public broadcasters you're hopefully getting less "clickbait" and more "this is important news the public needs". But, even then, there's going to be bias.
A third party isn't involved. An RSS feed pulls in the data from the source.
My point is that you find a trusted news source and you don't have Google, Facebook, Apple, or Xitter deciding what you should see.
