RSS is an aggregation protocol that is
- distributed
- pull-oriented
- self-curated
This is in contrast to reddit, digg, lemmy, or other aggregator services which are
- centralized (even if federated)
- push-oriented
- public input w/ moderator curation
Each of these decisions has tradeoffs.
Same reason we did in ancient times, aggregating content
What’s your favourite rss aggravator?

Twitter replaced my rss feed. Then Twitter sucked.
