## Atom
> "The Atom format was developed as an alternative to RSS. [Ben Trott](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Trott), an advocate of the new format that became Atom, believed that RSS had limitations and flaws—such as lack of on-going innovation and its necessity to remain backward compatible—and that there were advantages to a fresh design."
-So that's Atom and RSS in short. In the real world Atom/RSS feeds really don't get the usage they deserve. For me an Atom/RSS feed reader is indispensable. Instead of checking 20 different web pages manually scanning each page for new content, I can just open my feed reader. It shows me all my web content in a streamlined fashion. Unlike social media, I have full control over my Atom/RSS feeds. In fact, Atom/RSS feeds are a big reason I don't have social media accounts and haven't for some time. Why go on social media when you can make it come to you? It's easy to get feeds for most popular social media sites including but not limited to Youtube, Reddit, Tumblr, Medium, Wordpress, Blogger and Twitter.

I'm not inherently against social media. I'm just against proprietary walled gardens which is most social media that people actually use. Atom/RSS feeds make it easy to keep your distance from social media without missing out. I'm aware I could use [free](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html), federated social networks like [Mastadon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastodon_%28software%29). I just don't have a need. For future reference, if I sign up for social media, I'll link my profile on my about page in the [identity](/about/) section. Any social media accounts not linked under the identity section claiming to belong to me or even appearing to be mine are [sock puppets](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_%28Internet%29). For now I just have this blog.
