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.

What is Reddit if not a glorified collection of RSS feeds with comments?

I went from Google Reader to Reddit. It scratched very much the same itch. I remember having quite the curated list of RSS feeds subscribed to. Still pissed that Google killed it.

We really just need a Reader replacement. I'm sure there is something out there I don't know about.

If not, perhaps I'll make one and become a billionaire on the RSS bandwagon!

Is Feedly still a thing and okay? I remember it being the stopgap between Google Reader and Reddit, however I'm not sure where it lies on the "free version is good enough" vs "completely gimped free version and the real product is the paid one"

I’m using the free version and not missing the paid features!
