But it’s clear that Google has a history of building products with RSS and killing the RSS support once it’s established a user base.
Not only RSS. It was the same with XMPP, and probably other things I don’t remember now. Better don’t rely on Google products.
cough cough gmail
(I use gmail and need to stop)What gmail do? Except the usual data tomfoolery
The biggest and most obvious encroachment on standard email that Gmail does is opting for a tag system over a folder system. It is superior, but nonstandard. If you rely on this, it’s Gmail vendor lock-in for you.
I will say I just found the RSS feeds for News, like as of 2 days ago.
Care to share it? :)
Thanks!!
https://news.google.com/rss will redirect to a feed for the top content in your region.
You can also make a search and paste that URL into your feed reader and it will find the feed to subscribe to that search.
you could always write a scraper but javascript makes this a non-trivial task
Just import a headless web browser into your scraper, of course! Couldn’t be easier 🙄
Business as usual at Google.
Google is a fucking nightmare. I‘m not gonna cite the article but damn they employed every dirty trick in the book it seems. The more I learn about EEE the more it disgusts me. All in the name of manipulation, monopoly and money.
E.E.E.
