@strypey @liaizon @natriumchloride @jeffmcneill rss declined for numerous reasons but here's the big ones:
1. general developer antipathy toward xml
2. unlike permissive html, rss was strict and developers constantly fucked up implementing it correctly, a single minor error made the entire feed unusable (tying back to 1, maybe the xml hate was justified)
3. end users wanted to be fed the entire document through rss and read it on their reader of choice rather than ujst get a link through syndication, but this stripped tracking and ad embeds so content producers weren't enthusiastic
4. clients tended to be poor, everybody remembers the couple good paid ones that were essentially aggregator services in reality
5 . mozilla of course, ignoring their mission statement massively contributed to the death spiral by removing direct rss support from the browser
so now we live in a world where regular webpages that are literally just status feeds don't even have rss on them so you have to scrape and dom interpret the fucking things; and people beg them to post updates "via mastodon" which they inevitably do by joining a massive server that silently blocks half the fediverse from being able to subscribe to it. what a fucking mess

Might get to go home from the hospital today, even though I don't have any new answers on what's wrong.
@Moon This is more common than you think. A lot of people are allergic to different fruits and never realize it.
So after everything it looks like how much longer I am in the hospital is unknown. Could get out tomorrow or be here till Monday. 24-72 hours is such a vague window of time. I miss my kids
Holy cow the grand twist of #Persona5 is just bad, and the way they pat their back on it while explaining everything you can tell they are so proud of it.
So it marks almost a week that I have been here. So have lost over 35lbs pounds of fluid in my legs so I no longer walk like a cow boy. Though aside from that I don't have many answers for what is wrong with my stomach, kidney, or heart. I just keep hearing the same old "man you are really young to be going through all of this". Which always just leaves me shrugging because I don't know what to say.
Either way I assumes is will get released soon because I feel they are running out of tests. I just hope I get some answers on what's up and how to fix it.
At least I get praise from the nurses that it is easy to take blood from me, and that I don't fight any of the restrictions they put on me diet wise.
