Suggestion: Mention Opera's native support

Under the "Current usage" section, it states, "Mozilla removed RSS support from Mozilla Firefox version 64.0, joining Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge which do not include RSS support, thus leaving Internet Explorer as the last major browser to include RSS support by default." However, Opera supports RSS by default with the "News feeds" function. It may not be one of the big three, but surely if Internet Explorer, which is long-dead, is still being called a "major browser", then Opera, which is still actively developed, qualifies. 47.187.213.200 (talk) 00:30, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Aaron Finch's contribution?

Anybody trying to figure out what Aaron's contribution was? The article doesn't state any. --Greatder (talk) 04:06, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 5 June 2022

In the section "Current usage" it is stated that Mozilla removed RSS support from Mozilla Firefox version 64.0, joining Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge which do not include RSS support, thus leaving Internet Explorer as the last major browser to include RSS support by default. This is not entirely true, ad Google Chrome for Android supports RSS feeds. I recommend removing Google Chrome and leaving only Microsoft Edge. One of the sources is The Verge (https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/8/22716813/google-chrome-follow-button-rss-reader). 188.124.192.128 (talk) 15:35, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please change "Mozilla removed RSS support from Mozilla Firefox version 64.0, joining Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge which do not include RSS support" to "Mozilla removed RSS support from Mozilla Firefox version 64.0, joining Microsoft Edge which does not include RSS support".
Google Chrome for Android does support RSS feeds. 89.111.251.26 (talk) 09:45, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
 Partly done: I felt the change should be done in the paragraph about its revival. Ping me if you're unsatisfied. SWinxy (talk) 05:38, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No sources on RSS compared with Atom

That entire section only contains a source with a dead link.

The claim "Atom has (...) less restrictive licensing" is very odd, since the RSS format is completely open and the specification document has a CC-SA license like Wikipedia. On the other hand, the Atom RFC does provide some more restrictions. Daniel.sousa.me (talk) 17:55, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed the dead link, I'll add additional citations if needed. yvanyblog(talk) 11:43, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
