I used to run it for a while (it might actually still be running, I'd need to check my VPS and delete it if it is), but I feel like RSS readers kind of got overtaken by Reddit (and Lemmy). I tried going back to it again a few times, but the lack of comments felt off after having experienced Reddit.

The best use case for RSS for me is getting updates from journals and github releases. Also subscribing to youtube channels feeds is convenient since i dont have to visit their website regularly and can just watch the channels that im interested in.

Until reddit shut off the RSS feeds, Geddit (Android app RSS reader for reddit) was very useful to me.

Allowed following of niche/particular subs without drama

Unfortunately, many of those closely focused, well moderated and useful communities continue to exist only on reddit

reddit still has rss feeds. You have to use the old reddit links, like <#^https://old.reddit.com/r/science.rss>

Interesting. Apparently the Geddit app has been abandoned/unmaintained since 2 years ... Huh
