I am notified about new posts to feeds that I follow by rss2email. I have 72 feeds that I actively follow. > But I am a dinosaur, and I am not sure that RSS still is vital or even > helpful to a web site; therefore my query. It is niche but very appreciated by those of us that use it. Basically if I like a blog or similar service then I like to follow it. But I will never see new postings unless they have a feed, or if I follow them on Fediverse. I'm not going to sit there reloading 72 web sites every day. (Doesn't have to be RSS; any feed tech like Atom is fine also) Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
