I use NetNewsWire on my iPad and Feeder on my Android phone to read RSS feeds from multiple sites (including Lemmy and Kbin). I also use it to monitor niche sub-reddits so I can give Reddit as little traffic as possible.

I guess it was inevitable that Reddit would know many are doing this and begin to kill RSS feeds. I’ve noticed the past few days that my feeds were not being updated very often, if at all, even though the feed appears to still be there.

This started a few weeks ago, apparently:

    RSS is a standardized protocol that allows you to get updates from websites when new content gets published. Using a RSS client, you can follow multiple websites in a single interface.
