You don't use RSS to follow news sites. You use RSS to follow infrequently updated sites so you don't have to keep checking them to see if there's any new content. It still works for this purpose and most sites that fit this format still have RSS or Atom feeds.

Seeing how faster it is for me (compared to the web interface) to keep up to date with HackerNews after the weekend, I disagree. RSS is excellent to sift and pick many articles.

Not OP but I use feedly which has hackerNews as a source. Minimal digging and I found this third party HN feed provider:

This is exactly how i use RSS. It's so convenient to have one place instead of checking dozens of blogs that only get updated once in a while.
