Drupal and the Open Web

A few days ago, I said that I still like to use RSS to consume a lot of online content.

Unfortunately, a lot of websites either don't have RSS or Atom feeds, or they aren't easy to find without viewing the website's source code.

The ability for people to publish and easily consume other people's content is a main principle of the open web, instead of relying on other websites and social media.

Drupal is one of the projects that make an open web possible.

It's easy to create an RSS feed of your articles, events or any other content on your Drupal website for others to consume.

I also love that Drupal.org itself does this by publishing RSS feeds for project releases and various other content - not just news or blog posts.

Because of this, I can subscribe to the feeds I want from any website that creates them and I can consume it how and when I want.

Long live the open web!
