Do you still use RSS in 2026, or do you mostly rely on social media to discover what to read?
Social media algorithms optimize for your attention.
RSS feeds optimize for what you actually want to read.
I’ve been thinking about how we consume information online.
When you rely on social media for news and updates, you don’t completely choose what you see.
The algorithm does. And the things that get pushed to you aren’t always the things you actually care about.
RSS feels different.
You choose the sources.
You choose what to follow.
You decide what’s worth reading.
It could be a news website, a blog, a YouTube channel, an engineering blog, a research publication, or simply someone whose work you enjoy.
No endless scrolling. No algorithm deciding what comes next. Just the content you chose to follow.
That’s the idea behind Frontpagee. I’m building it to make following the things you care about simpler, calmer, and more personal.
Still building and improving it, but I’m curious:
Do you still use RSS in 2026, or do you mostly rely on social media to discover what to read?
