I would love to see a resurgence in RSS instead of all the bloat thats so prevalent nowadays.

It's a neat idea but it still requires hosting and for the vast unwashed masses who don't want to buy a domain and setup hosting for this stuff at the end of the day I fear this would be Facebook with extra steps.

There are some other federated social sites besides lemmy that something like this could be added to, but they're not as big, afaik.
