So, this isn’t meant to be a “guide” or anything but I thought it could be helpful to some.
- Find yourself an RSS feed reader (e.g. Feedbin).
- Grab your subreddit link. (Example:
reddit.com/r/museum) - Add
.rssto the end of that link. (Example:reddit.com/r/museum.rss) - Add your subreddit RSS feeds to your feed reader.
This way, you can keep reading reddit without having to visit it. You will still need an account to participate, of course.
But I asked myself this question: “Do I really want to participate and keep feeding reddit content for free?”
You are what makes reddit what it is. If you can be yourself elsewhere, why waste your precious time on reddit?
You deserve better.
They will likely crack down on RSS next arguing that “most people don’t use it anyway”
100% If it’s not contributing to the bottom line, it’s out
Yeah, I can see that happening.
Yes but it may help some folks with the transition while these new communities get started
That was my first thought as well. They want a walled garden and envy Facebook / Twitter for their anti-user practices. RSS runs counter to that
