Honestly I think Fediverse + IPFS + Matrix + Email all rolled into one app and you could have a pretty powerful "everything app" with a huge amount of features, but none of the lock in (so users that don't use the app aren't excluded and vice versa).

I personally don't use it, but I know it's popular. Besides for use in news ticker kind of systems(this was the last I used an RSS, it was super cool though tbh), how do people actually use them?
