A lot of people don’t know this, but you can subscribe to subreddits using RSS by simply adding .rss at the end of the URL, e.g: https://reddit.com/r/socialism.rss and then you can add the feed to your favorite RSS reader. For example, there’s a great add on for Firefox and an Android app.
As far as I know, RSS feeds aren’t affected by the API changes. So if you use Reddit to catch up on the news, this is a great way to do that.
Nice! Can’t wait to pay 40$ next year for that access.
Seriously though, it’s a great feature and I hope it stays.
lol, yeah hope they don’t nuke the feeds
Thanks for this! I forgot RSS even existed. The time I used them were so many years ago that it feels like RSS should be dead like cds 😂

great way to catch up on the news is to watch actual real respectable news - not reddit (or any other social network, for that matter)
Reddit is just an aggregator of actual real respectable news.
