The other issue is that a lot of these sites gate the content fed through RSS to make you visit the site for the whole thing (plus, you know, ad impressions).<p>RSS works best when the content can be fully digestible in the reader.  If you can read most of it there, great--you get a preview.  What I hated was when I&#x27;d get like a line or two, or couldn&#x27;t even see an image load in an image-only post without visiting a sloth of a site.<p>Oddly enough, my Reddit homepage is pretty decent now due to pruning subscriptions and using RES.
