I see in my server logs that a lot more are subscribing with RSS, so I guess…

We have all seen it, read it, experienced it. Lately on the interwebs, people have been complaining a lot about how things was better before, and how everything is turning to shit now.

I stopped writing that draft because I realized I was doing exactly what…
