I have an app ( feedMe I think) that also pulls the text from the web version along with the 1-sentence feed and ocasionally a header image. Very useful on an eink device, but not sure if it works with pcgamer, because it can’t pass some ad-walls/pay-walls.

However I feel RSS had a small part to play in the state of web today. If everyone were to use RSS how would writers get paid? Donations are too unreliable, subscriptions are frowned on, sponsorships are incompatible with the job and taxes really only work for state media like the BBC. People gotta eat, no?
