Where did RSS go in Safari 6???

Where the heck is the RSS reader!?!?! It was the best all round RSS reader! I DEPEND on it for thousands of feeds that I have to keep track of every day!


AND WHY wasn't there somekind of warning? Or a suggestion for an alternative? Or at least a good extension/option!?


FIX THIS ASAP PLEASE! People like me DEPEND on features like these, you CANNOT just take them away without warning when you force a software update like this!

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7), 10GB RAM - ATI Radeon HD 5870

One of Apple's stupidest moves yet. First of all, if you have lots of RSS feeds, Safari was the best, most flexible way to weed through them. And most of the dedicated readers are crap -- nowhere near as easy to ready, nowhere near as flexible in what to show and how much of the feed to show. And you have to switch apps to read RSS. Apple's getting like Microsoft, where they think they know what we want and the best way to work. In both cases, they are usually wrong!

OK we get the message YOU like Vienna. However, just because you like it, doesn't mean that everyone else will, or that Vienna answers to their needs. I don't and it doesn't. Sarafi 5 and RSS were perfectly integrated. Web sites used RSS feeds, you read the feed and then if you needed to linked straight to the web page and never once had to leave the browser window. Vienna is a COMPLETELY different solution. You have to switch between programmes everytime you want to go between feed and web page. You might like it, but to me it ***** and just doesn't work in the seamless way Safari used to work. As Jason and others have mentioned if you are as hacked off and annoyed at Apple's absolutely stupid and idiotic decision to remove this feature, complain about it here

Bring it back Apple.


This decision has bothered me more than any other Apple has made recently, it's really got under my skin. I think it is because I have trusted Apple beyond other companies to make elegant, beautiful objects and interfaces that just work, get out of the way and let me do what i need to do. This decision has left my world an uglier place, I spend more time in my browser than I do in my own living room and it feels like someone has broken in and swapped my sofa for a couple of pallets. Ok that sounds strong but the previous version was an elegant solution, it minimally informed me of unread feeds, without any hassle, the interface kept out of the way, became invisible, now I have 2 apps back and forth, its ugly. And this is what really worries me, that they would make an ugly decision, it goes against everything they stand for and erodes my trust in Apple to strive to be something better, to make something better.


As a 28 year user of using Apple gear, please apple bring RSS back to safari.


Simplicity, Beauty, Elegance of form and function are what put Apple at the top, if they loose this idea then we have entered the decline, I hope this is not the case.
