      I started self hosting my own RSS feed a few years ago, and I couldn’t live without it. It’s the best way to get timely info.

      And then you can be the first one to post it on lemmy.

      I loved netvibes to get daily comics and blog posts. Unfortunately people stopped writing blogs and netvibes is also gone

        Blogs are having a timid resurgence I would say. Also not everyone stopped writing blogs, I have been following some since 2008 or so… When Google Reader was a thing lol

        I think they are a lot more obscure because we prioritise social networks over blogs, so do search indexers. But they are still there!

        Comics are now mostly on Instagram, but you can make Instagram RSS feeds with things like rss-bridge

          Friends stopped writing their blogs. I slowly stopped reading most comics, now only Questionable Content and the occasional xkcd remains
