It’s Time to Get Back to RSS

  Not only will this reduce your anxiety 
  and churn from constantly opening and 
  closing various sites, but RSS also 
  shows the content in a standard format, 
  with less to distract you.

Hmm, if you get anxiety from closing and opening tabs, you should probably go offline for a while.

I love RSS - it's how I found this article :) I've been using The Old Reader every since Google reader shut down...I love it.

I really like Reeder 4.0. I use it on iOS and Mac and it's a dream.

RSS is the only way I consume content regularly -- if Innoreader can't see a feed at a site that I may come across, I won't be visiting regularly. Too much of a PITA otherwise. No Twitter account either -- I don't want a "push" model, and the S/N ratio is way too low...

Consuming RSS with Inoreader here. Probably the most used app on my phone.

I so agree with the author. Less effort it takes to retrieve documents, the less it will mean to you, which means that you’ll less likely consume it.

Also if you don't want to sign up for another service there's also a bunch of self hosted RSS readers like https://miniflux.app which I'll never get tired of recommending in threads like this.
