@brentsimmons Praise be to those who baked it into various CMSs back in the day, where it silently continues to do its job, beneath the notice of web devs and Chief Growth Officers. (And thanks for NNW.)

@brentsimmons RSS might be the best protocol ever invented. It's the backbone of modern podcasting and nobody even knows it. The fact that nobody knows about it shows how great it is. It never breaks, it hasn't been enshittified... It just silently works in the background without bothering anybody. That's how tech should work. The more you hear about something, the more it sucks... Take Meta for example. It's dystopian level bad at every level of their stack... Can't stay out of the news because it is always fucking something up. RSS would never do that to us.

@brentsimmons god I hope not. An RSS Reader is literally how I manage all of the text-based social media websites right now and it works far better than their respective apps

@brentsimmons A content of a webapp does not depens on appearance and operation. Web MVC works fine. Content syndication too.
