According to Google Trends, during the past few years, there has been nothing but a few minor bumps that faded away as quickly as they came. I love RSS because i do not have to scroll through dozens of different news sites all day and i would love it to return.

EDIT: Typical case of people only reading the headline. I was asking why people are hyped over something that did NOT happen.

i would love it to return.

RSS never died though, I have at least 50 web sites that I follow.

Tiny Tiny RSS has been great for me. Popped it on a VPS and it's been running for years now trouble.

Damn straight. Feedbin for me.

It has gotten less useful over time as content went elsewhere, but also I’ve been lazy about moving Substack feeds over.

I think they mean get popular again, see more robust support and integration, etc.
