Marcus Downing I’m one of the people who mourned Google Reader. I switched to Tiny Tiny RSS (https://tt-rss.org/) and still use it seven years later – in fact I clicked onto this article from it. Big operators like Google and Facebook want you to trust their recommendations algorithms, reading what they want you to read. As seen with the recent spat between Google and Australian news sites, this is a fragile system that can’t really be trusted. Curating your own list of sites to follow, by RSS or any other mechanism, is a way of pushing back against this trend.
