I see the RSS symbol on some post and I was wondering how to do it since I mod 2 communities. Yes I did try to google it but I was fed sponsored links and bullshit. If someone could point me to something that is understandable for a non tech guy I would appreciate it.

it downloads a file that you can then import into your RSS reader of choice

That's not how it works — the feed isn't a file that you download. You copy that feed URL and paste it into your RSS reader's 'subscribe' feature. Then your reader application will regularly check that URL for new posts.

By the way, there's an RSS community: !rss@lemmy.ml
