I still use RSS for about 250 blogs/sites (tracked by Feedly). That's no near to what it was in times of Google Reader. Some sites stopped providing RSS. For some there was just too much content and it was a pain to filter out everything. I have settled down on those two approaches:

1) If blog/site generates content rare and provides RSS, I use Feedly to track it.

2) If blog/sites generates a lot of content I expect that someone in my Twitter feed will post link to really good article.

So yeah - RSS is still valuable.

Like you, some of the high volume sites I have removed from RSS. Others, I have organized into a high volume group or folder of my RSS Reader. Then I use some keyword filters to notify me of when stuff I really want to read comes through the high volume feeds.
