Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance? (lemmy.world)

According to Google Trends, during the past few years, there has been nothing but a few minor bumps that faded away as quickly as they came. I love RSS because i do not have to scroll through dozens of different news sites all day and i would love it to return.

EDIT: Typical case of people only reading the headline. I was asking why people are hyped over something that did NOT happen.

Because then they can avoid social media again by building their own catalog of interest.

For me, the value of RSS is bypassing the fucking algorithm.

Just give me the raw feed from the websites I like. No suggestions, no "someone else liked this." Just the raw firehose of content that I asked for.

The big platforms have gotten a lot worse.

Twitter went fascist.
Canadians can't share news articles on Facebook.
Reddit self-owned.
