Reddit Draws Criticism Over Killing RSS Feeds
Original: The Front Page of the Internet Is Killing RSS Feeds
Reports say Reddit, often called the front page of the internet, is phasing out support for RSS feeds, a long-standing tool that lets users follow updates from sites without visiting them.

Why now: Redditors and feed users are reacting to the loss of a beloved open-web feature.
