We should stop and take an enormous appreciation for the total lack of control and censorship of the RSS protocol.
Its easy to forget when things work really well, but holy fuck through all of this, through the social censorship, through the advertiser attacks, the video hosting platforms, the search engines, and every other damn thing under the sun... if you have the RSS feed of the podcast you trust or value, you can always find that fucking show.
Imagine how much worse all of this would be without that avenue still open to us to share ideas?
The reason I bring this up is simply to remind us that this CAN work. It has worked. #Nostr could be the backbone for the social world.
I don’t even know what RSS is even though I’ve been on the Internet since 1995🤣 (That’s the level of my genius😂)

Real Simple Syndication. It's a way to publish lists of linkable content which are easily processed by scripts/apps. Podcasts still syndicate this way to this day.
Thanks
Thank you too! From an old guy trying to learn!
