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.

the subset of those who do not use a proper search engine who want to know what a RSS is.

Beyond that, though, who the fuck would use Google's search popularity as a metric for the popularity of a technology. Those who use it aren't searching for it all the time. OP is dumb.

that's been a leading indicator of popularity for a long time now.

Why would that be a leading indicator? If anything those that use it are far less likely to Google it.

Search popularity is something like the first derivation (read: change in) popularity of a technology.

Calling people dumb is ableist.
