Feedly is updated but I don't care because I don't see the need for RSS or RSS readers

Feedly App Update Finally Changes Back Button Behavior To Be Less Annoying, Easy Switching To Next Feed

If there's one thing that's kept me from using Feedly's official app, as opposed to using more conventional RSS-style readers in the wake of the Google Reader collapse, it's the interface. Aside from the fact that I find it kind of clunky in general, the inconsistent back button behavior is a real downer. With the latest app update (version 18.1.3), it becomes a little bit less of a headache.

I still can't see the need for RSS and RSS readers when there is more modern ways to find and read news available. Like Google+ and Twitter. But I guess the difference is that I search for news to share and blog about, and not so much for consuming. I simply can't find all the hot and latest stuff I share and blog about if I use RSS. It's a too slow media for me, and for example for all the leaked images I often share, I need faster real time streams.
