If RSS feeds are being killed, should I really spend the effort to invest my time into setting them all up? Do major news sources like NYT, etc. still plan to have them up and running indefinitely, or are they about to take them down?

    Well then you move to scraping with tools like RSSHub lol they're not stopping me with paywalls either you can automatically feed stuff into archive.today and then detect the same URL when it gets posted on archive with their RSS feed itself. You will learn the ways

    Yeah the whole site they have an RSS feed of whatever gets saved. So you apply regex to that and you can filter for relevant geopolitical news articles pretty easily. If you guys HYPOTHETICALLY wanted to read something other than The Guardian on here lol
