Very interesting and very sad that we need these actions
> So, I looked for them as well but few websites have them.
This is a bit surprising for me. I've just randomly checked news: BBC, Guardian, Norwegian NRK - all had RSS. But I'm not checking news that much so not sure about others. Mastodon and BlueSky are also providing RSS. I guess walled garden ones like Instagram/Twitter don't?
My RSS reader is subscribed to:
- one Youtube channel
- several blogs (most blogs do have RSS, for example Wordpress provide it by default)
- Hacker News (few keyword-based feeds)
- Gitlab and Codeberg projects (Github provides RSS, but I'm not currently subscribed to any, because I need to be logged there anyway)
- podcasts (podcasts are basically just RSS)
- few Mobilizon sites for events
- OpenStreetMap QA tool that checks my edits
- two subreddits
Maybe in general, you are right. I know just my bubble and even there are few sites without RSS (like Bandcamp).
My target websites are oddly specific: biotechnology news maybe it is only that particular case
It's very much alive. It's the primary way I keep up with sites on the web. One thing to keep in mind is that a lot of websites have RSS feeds but don't advertise them or offer an obvious link, but are discoverable by looking at the site's page source.
> Now, with the advent of Agentic AI they seem to be an old fashioned way that is needed anymore.
One of the main reasons I use RSS is to assemble a news feed that I read. It's hard to see how Agentic AI can improve on that.
Can you provide some resources to extract RSS feeds?

Very interesting, I learnt Rust for the same reason: having fun doing something that I need and learning new things in the process.
Good luck for your new project!
