The View From RSS

cadamsdotcom: I’d like to use this space to praise everyone involved in creating and keeping NetNewsWire alive.I (re)discovered RSS a few months ago via NetNewsWire, and it’s so calming and empowering to curate one’s own feed.Rumors of RSS’ death are greatly exaggerated.

simonw: NetNewsWire is SO good - both the macOS and iPhone apps. Real labor of love. We are very lucky to have it.

sixtyj: RSS’ death is real - 15 years ago, almost every news site had a RSS feed, some had several ones. Today? RSS feed is rare.So if you want to make news feed from news sites, you have to use parsing their html code, and ofc everybody has its own structure. JS powered sites are painful ones.

nntwozz: Love it, also shoutout to NewsFire from the days of yore.https://newsfirex.comJust look at it, NNW is still using the same great design.
