Issue#

Royal Road likes to annoy pirates. This is (arguably) good.

RSS - Still Very Useful#

I like having a centralized curated list of content. I’d rather go to a single page to catch up on new content instead of visiting or remembering to visit a bunch of different sites. I also don’t like having to deal with cookies and sites tracking my every move.

I use: FreshRSS, RSSHub, and RSSHub-Radar

I used to only use RSS for blogs and other text based content but with the above tools I can RSS-ify most anything.
