 RSS (Really Simple Syndication), also know as a "feed" and "Atom" (A newer version of RSS) is a technology that lets you read and follow news, blogs and journals from websites you love; without needing any accounts (Its also used for audio Podcasts, but this guide is focussed on text feeds). This guide is aimed at supplying you with some basic info to get started with RSS!

 To get started reading feeds you'll need a program that can collect and display your feeds; some great options are:
-  * For Mac + iOS - [[https://netnewswire.com/|NetNewsWire]] - OpenSource

-  * For Windows + Linux - [[https://quiterss.org/|QuietRSS]] - OpenSource

-These feed readers will collect and store your feeds locally on your computer; however if you want to sync your feeds between multiple devices you'll need what's called an "RSS Aggregator"; this is an online service that will collect and sync your feeds for you; however most of them cost money. To get started I suggest you don't worry about this, but [[https://www.newsblur.com/|NewsBlur]] is one option and has a free plan; you can also self host with [[https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS|FreshRSS]]. All feed readers let you import/export the feeds you follow, so its easy to change in the future!

 Once you have an RSS reader, you're ready to start collecting feeds! Adding a feed to your RSS reader is called "Subscribing"; this is purely one sided, no one can see if you subscribe to their feed. To subscribe to a feed, simply click a feed link (if your browser supports it), if that does not work, just copy the feed url and add it to your feed reader manually.
