Google’s role in RSS decline
The article argues that Google has repeatedly leveraged RSS to grow its products and then reduced or removed support after users were locked in. It cites examples including Chrome’s removed RSS button, FeedBurner changes, Google Reader’s shutdown, and the end of RSS support in Google Alerts, suggesting these decisions weakened RSS adoption overall.
