@jwz@mastodon.social @mjg59@nondeterministic.computer The death of rss was cultural, tho. It disappeared from people's consciousness, even in the tech sector.
A couple years back, a friend working at a large multinational software company was talking with me about this cool project his backend colleagues were thinking about, that could revolutionize how content was distributed and updated in their infrastructure. He was really surprised when, unprompted, I revealed to him details of how it could and should work, and possible pitfalls they might encounter. They were trying to reinvent RSS because nobody in the company had even heard of it.
