According to Dictionary.com, RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based standard and format used to distribute recent news and other frequently updated content appearing on a website.

We love visuals, so let's look at what a Google Trends graph has to say...
RSS Feeds became increasingly popular in the early 2000s, and have been on a steady decline ever since.

Social Media has taken over, and become a business necessity to staying relevant when sharing content with customers/members.
Email Platforms like Constant Contact & Mailchimp have added ease to creating custom templates and messaging (Fun fact: Emails have a MUCH higher click rate than RSS Feeds).
