This is a development that is long overdue. Last year, Feedly made email subscriptions available through its RSS reader, and now, Substack is launching its own RSS reader to manage newsletter subscriptions and other RSS feeds "for people whose email inbox isn't their ideal reading experience" (which, I think, is almost everyone). Substack's product still needs some work; "there's no way to read stories inside of Substack Reader, like you can in a traditional RSS reader, and stories stay in your queue even after you've read them." But maybe - maybe - we're seeing a renaissance of distributed content networks.
