Do you use an RSS reader? What type of media do you follow with it?
Multiple choice, but there is a "no" option because you have to pick at least one option to vote, a shortcoming of ActivityPub, it seems.
I just came across this link from @pluralistic, so I decided to see how many people are into it.

@jmtd I wasn't sure of which media to single out, and I only get 2 options besides "other" and "no", so I just picked the first two that came to mind. I just recently realized I could listen to a podcast by pasting a URL into GNOME Rhythmbox, and it felt like pure magic, so I'm still figuring this out.
@ygor @pluralistic I'm trying to get back into RSS as a way to read my favourite websites, but the reader I got is... not doing the job. I need to find something better.
@pluralistic @ygor Thank you! I'm using Gnome's "Feeds" right now, and it's not presenting me with ways to *make* it work if it doesn't automatically work.
@jmtd It's a mastodon server configuration. The default is 4. Some servers change it, but mine didn't.
@ygor @pluralistic Beyond blogs/newsletters - My library has an RSS feed for new book additions, YouTube channels all have an RSS feed (though YouTube don't advertise it), and OSM makes changesets for a given area available through RSS
I use vivaldi for the RSS reader.
