I visit HN from RSS feed. Articles are listed on my feed, but I have to click through to really read anything-—there is no summary in the RSS feed.

So I could visit HN directly and prolly save a step. But in truth, I like having one place to go. And here I’ve collected and curated all the places I like to visit. And I find it much better than using bookmarks.

Which is all a lot to say that I’d be more likely to return to visit this site if it had an RSS feed.

Obviously, part of the charm of the site is the telemetry and data widgety bits (weather, stock ticker) which are mixed in with newsy and fun bits (I love the quotes). But I can tell you with all honesty, if I make a bookmark for this site, it’s going into a sea of links.

RSS isn’t just for consuming site data without dealing with the design cruff. It’s also good as a bookmark.

I'll add an RSS feed to the site. Thanks for the feedback. It's kind of MVP at the moment, it's slowly turning into something. I need to add original written content which I will add, just getting the bones in place.
