Example: using the invidious RSS feature for YouTube channels instead of subscribing. RSS also works with Nitter.

    My problem with RSS is the same as with email: I never remember to open it and read it.

    A long time ago, I had a keyboard with an LCD screen on it (Logitech G15), and it had an RSS reader function. It would show me posts whenever my eyes happened to glance over it, without taking any screen real estate on my actual PC screen. It was a perfect setup for me.

    Ever since I stopped using that keyboard (it was getting very old), I’ve missed this function. Never got a habit for RSS since. :(

    I think I should make something like this with Arduino or something.

      Vivaldi offers a built in RSS reader. You get notifications when something drops. I think the Arduino idea is nice though.
