| > What would be the point? First, at least IMO, RSS readers tend to have far better reading UX since their primary function is consumption. Second, related to the previous, I prefer the "infinite scroll of content" UX of an RSS reader versus the typical email paradigm. Third, it segregates the content so that my email contains those things that actually require effort to respond to, and not just content I'm consuming. Fourth, you can blend your newsletters with other content published via RSS, creating a unified content feed of things you want to read (in my case it's a combination of newsletters, long form news articles, blog posts, etc). Finally, again, RSS is far more convenient for converting to other formats like ePub. Can you get some of these benefits with the right kind of email client, filters and config, etc? Probably. But, the original post was from someone saying they didn't want to use email. So this is an alternative. If you're happy using email, keep on keeping on! |
