    With RSS you also get everything (too much), while on social media it’s curated.

      Can you explain a bit more what you mean? I’ve been using RSS since 2006 and what you’re saying is not my experience. I follow mostly personal blogs, because newspapers don’t offer RSS feeds.

        Fair enough, I personally have only ever used RSS for webcomics, so I’m talking out of my ass here. But it still stands that an article I find, say, on lemmy, has usually been posted by a third party who found it worth posting. So it has often gone through a selection process before reaching me.
