If it, or some other service, could find a way to publish feeds of content for sites which don't have RSS feeds, now that would be really useful.
That would require web scraping, which is easy enough to do on a news website, but it would require work for each individual site.
Yes I know, I literally do it myself with a Python script right now for 3 sites. I just wish someone would generously provide a hosted and maintained service that does this. IMO it could be a game changer. For some people a single source that lacks a feed is a deal breaker for RSS.
