I use RSS a fair amount. I can't really speak to the accessibility, but I find feeds by searching a web page's source for the word "feed". The New York Times has feeds available from this page for different locations and topics.

    Keeping hardware running 24/7 cheaply is difficult. Expanding an existing setup is expensive. Consumer grade ISP's will block unexpected network protocols sometimes seemingly for no reason. Dynamic DNS isn't super robust, so several times I went on vacation and the DNS service would flake. Maybe it's better if you pay more for it, but I have no complaints about my VPS. It's nice to be able to just reliably reach my web stuff and not worry a cat bumped the power cable.
