   Hot Take: Mozilla did more damage against RSS/Atom with entirely throwing it away from Firefox than Google shutting down Google Reader did.

     @icedquinn They also threw away RSS/Atom feed discovery, it's astounding the number of firefox users who think that youtube for example doesn't have RSS/Atom when it's neatly put in <link rel=alternative …> elements.

     @lanodan Mozilla removing features because they're unpopular, as if popularizing more freedom isn't their value proposition

     @lanodan You know, I can't take Mozilla excuse of "just use a plugin!" seriously given that they've given RSS's spot to Pocket!

     @alcinnz And "just use a plugin!" could still mean keeping feed discovery and pointing towards extensions on addons.mozilla.org with an rss tag.
