RSS feeds exist as files on most web sites. Why are RSS feeds important to us though? They are very effective ways to retrieving latest updates from our favourite web sites, so we don’t need to visit them. In fact, this very site supports RSS feeds like any other popular one. The truth is that RSS is very much alive. It shut shop many years ago, and that might give one the impression that RSS feeds are dead. You may have used Google Reader in the past too, and that was a very popular web-based RSS feed reader. Firefox for example, had something called Live Bookmarks. The RSS logo is rarely seen on web browsers and it’s true, several browsers don’t let you access RSS feeds right off the browser. There have some ramblings about how RSS is long gone, of late.
You could access it to know the last updated pages of a web site, something particularly useful when visiting news web sites. RSS feeds were a constantly updated index of the articles of a web site by recency. Most web browsers even displayed an orange logo that denoted the web site you were visiting supported RSS. I was not sure why it was happening but my Chrome profile stopped syncing pretty often in Cent OS 8 and now I see it does not happen any more since I do not log in through this extension.You may have heard of RSS feeds at some point in the past. I just started to think this chrome extension is the one that messes up with my Google Chrome profile in Cent OS 8 though. It is strange because a computer I use with Windows does not display this problem and it can keep on syncing all the changes on the Google Chrome profile I have there, even after the Chrome profile in Linux stops working. I had to delete my Chrome profile in Cent OS 8 too many times just to recreate it back again because at some point after using it in Cent OS 8 my Google Chrome profile is not able to read any more the possible updates I might have done to my profile with other devices on the cloud.
