Today I removed CyberNetNews from my RSS Feeds. Why? Because they continue to claim they post, but 99% of the stuff is rehashes or recaps. I don’t want to see recaps, I want to see new content, if you’re not going to post new original content there is no point in me subscribing to your feed.
I understand the site was started for fun and was taking up more of their time than they planned to. I can see reducing posts, but the site is pointless now. I have 100+ feeds I subscribe to and the less I have to browse the better for me.
