From The Verge: "Reddit will stop supporting RSS feeds on November 13th"

#Reddit claims that "RSS is 'now a common surface for large-scale scraping and automated abuse'."

Maybe some frontend will add #RSSfeeds now, if there isn't any already?

Still, sounds to me like either, or both, a scapegoat and an engineered problem they now harvest the exact fruits they wanted from.
