This warms my heart: "with a growing frustration of how social media platforms limit a creator's reach to their fans through algorithmic feeds, there's been renewed interest in RSS feeds and they're primed for a comeback as we get into 2022." This article is an introduction to RSS for people who may be new to it, along with some practical advice (such as: make the feeds easy to find, enable CORS (especially for JSON feeds), and plan for them to be read outside the browser. Beginners probably won't find these tips useful (my advice: use something that has RSS built-in, like Blogger or WordPress).
