    One of the benefits when I used to use RSS was that the feed could be updated and cached so articles could be read when you don’t have an active Internet connection. Not as big of a deal these days, but a decade ago cell networks were spottier and free Wi-Fi wasn’t always available.

    I always loved how pulse layed out each of the feeds and showed the headline and first image of the article.

      The issue now is that most RSS feeds do not include content. Which is understandable So its really more of a link aggregator now. Tuvix is not a reader app yet, maybe it will be, but I have seen some apps that will fetch and cache the page for offline viewing. Maybe one day.
