How do I replace the the removed Feed discover+view+subscription feature?

Hi!

  1. FF removed the RSS button to discover feeds. Which sucks.
  2. But it sucks even more that the feature to subscribe to feeds via external services was also removed.
  3. I also can't view feeds, even if I find one manually.

New, I saw solutions to the first one, but there of little to no use on their own. Downloading text files with feed items in xml format is pretty useless. I want to be able to view a feed and subscribe to it.

Hi avada, do you mean in Firefox 64, when Firefox removed the built-in "live bookmarks" feature that subscribed to RSS feeds using bookmarks?

Since then, you can use an add-on to subscribe to and read feeds. I don't have any personal recommendations, but here's a link to the search results for "RSS" so you can see what's available:
