I USED the Firefox feed reader in ver 60esr, before there was an UNWANTED UPGRADE to ver 68esr WITHOUT MY REQUEST. Firefox 68 now FAILS to read a MUCH NEEDED RSS feed, with a STYLE INFO error on an UNWANTED DOWNLOADED XML file. The wanted page has NO LIVE FEED OPTION, so I cannot access provided downloads. So GOODBYE FIREFOX, and HELLO GOOGLE !!!

Hi Anon_ymous, Firefox's built-in support for web feeds and Live Bookmarks was removed with the release of Firefox version 64 in December 2018.

I read the article, which suggests REPLACEMENTS. I need the original, which was there before the UNWANTED "UPGRADE", which in my view was a DOWNGRADE with removal of a VITAL function.

If no option is available within ver 68, is there a copy of the feature from ver 60esr I can use? How does IE still have that capability? Will I be FORCED to use that?

There's a lot of addons, which support RSS feeds: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/collections/5975439/feed-readers/

Livemarks is very similar to previous built-in function. Brief and Feedbro are even better than that.

I'm sure that Google Chrome doesn't support it either. So your blackmail doesn't work here.
