RSS is far from dead. I depend on Inoreader (
www.inoreader.com), which looks exactly like the old Google Reader + added a lot more functionality. It runs on Windows, Android & at least IOS.
I was told I was in the top 5% of Pocket users a few months back! [lol]. I use Pocket to save stuff from the news sites I read on Android.
On Windows I don't need Pocket because I save stuff I want to read as browser tabs or on Clipmate (the best clipboard maintenance and control app) that unfortunately hasn't been updated by the author in years, although it seems he is still willing to take payment for the app.
