I thought no one cared about RSS. Turns out people do. Just not RSS itself(frido.app)

    I got the ick from Google News and couldn’t find a news app that just showed my sources, algorithm-free.

    So I shipped a human-first iOS app without mentioning RSS anywhere. Just “follow the sites you want to read.”

    2 weeks in: Thousands of downloads, zero ads.

    Long live the Really Simple Syndication.

      Thank you. For a post that didn't mention AI and for a refresher on consumer psychology, I do thank you.

        Well, you know, someone has to produce original content so the machines have something to steal. (I feel you)
