Removing the RSS Reader in Safari with no heads up prior, I think its obvious Apple did that because they knew this information would light up forums/blogs everywhere and cause a lot of bad press. I hope it still does! We all need to light up apple feedback and any other forum or blog who will let us vent.
Another obvious thing is the link to the app store in the message you get that safari can't open an RSS feed. Nickle and diming us to pick an app. Sure there may be a free reader but as we all know, usually you get what you pay for. So what, now I have to leave the browser and open up another tool to do what I used to do in one? And the logic of that is? I know the $$$ logic. The developer logic. But this current logic escapes ALL Safari users,....most likely, at least in my case, former Safari user. Not touching it until RSS comes back. Not holding my breath tho.
I'll tell you what, just this alone stopped me in my tracks from updating my other machines and I got on the horn right away and told my friends not to update to Mountain Lion. Makes me happy that I still have a fully functioning PPC, a loaded/maxxed mac pro that I will now be using a lot more, especially for web browsing. But lets face it, we are all hogged tied when it comes to using most of our mac products. We'll have to upgrade hardware or software at some point and then the proverbial pootch will be screwed, and Apple knows it.
BAD move Apple. Very bad move.
