Why do most news/blog websites not have rss nowadays or if they do it's only like a title worth of text in each post and if you want more you have to wisit their website which is behind a paywall obviously.
>Why do most news/blog websites not have rss nowadays o
I blame soiphones for this honestly
Fricking normgroids are too stupid to be using rss readers so most sites don't bother these days or hide the feed link away on some backpage you have to scour thru
RSS only exists today because people don't know their off the shelf publishing software has it enabled by default, they would try to disable it if they knew how.
Programmers add it because it's easy as frick, you could even maintain your own RSS feed by hand, the format is very simple.
It's a feature that lets readers bypass all your income generators and get your content (or summaries) for free without being bombarded with ads or getting your metrics monetized by having an account.
Doesn't that sound like something every publishing company would want to stop?
rss is for getting things you care about delivered to you. You shouldn't try to care about something just because they have rss. Though rss is so critical that I eventually wrote my own that allows me to plug in my own local scrapers without relying on unreliable html-to-rss services. tt-rss is okay if you can stomach running php.

>Why
>which is behind a paywall
well that's why tbh. why would they post the whole thing for free on rss if they want you to pay for it?
You don’t have to post the article in the rss feed, it can just be a title or a short description.
Then what's the point of an RSS feed if you have to go to the website for the article anyway
So you don’t have to manually check websites every day to see if they posted something.
So you have to visit the site and are subject to ads

Tbh there's services where you provide css selectors and it converts it into an rss feed.
