     @Gargron Still miss it - and while there are plenty of good current alternatives for feed readers, it was the critical mass of social interaction that made it so good...

     I'd love to see what all my friends are reading, enjoying and sharing without having to delve into social networks and everything else that entails - but sadly I think it'd be almost impossible to get enough using RSS feed readers again...

     @Gargron What was google reader? Don’t think I’ve ever heard of it. Certainly something google didn’t promote.
     So I guess it was those like me who can’t read minds and never went looking for it that are the cause of it folding.
     Oh well.

     I've been paying to use NewsBlur ever since, and getting my monies worth out of it.

     @Gargron Hello. Will there be a "translation" function in the Mastodon app for android in the near future?
