Steam news feed in English

[ReBoot]

I get the idea behind displaying things, such as last top releases, in different languages. The world is an oyster and to broaden the perspective of everyone involved ain't that bad.

However, it's pretty impossible to actually read the news this way. When I have to close the news feed reader & go to Steam to read the news in a language in can understand (so, uhm, English) anyway, it would be cool if the news feed was displayed in English in the first place.

Hate to say this, but English is considered a dirty language these days. Notice how half of everything is in anything but English?

By whom? No, really, by whom?

[Crazy Tiger]

Can't say I've ever seen something listed in another language. Where did you see it, ReBoot?

On the news feed in my news feed reader. Happens for sales, happens for monthly tp releases.

I've only ever generally seen that if a dev launches a game with new localizations

Do you mean here?

I mean the, I quote, Steam Blog RSS Newsfeed which is, aside from language topics, a great way to get Steam news.

RSS uhhhh I don't think that's really supported anymore (i mean in that yes it exist but really almost no one is using it) so I don't think that's going to get fixed anytime soon

RIP RSS

Probably you should migrate here ratehr than relying on RSS which for all intents and purposes is basically dead

No, thank you. Reading this requires a browser. The browser then renders a lot of stuff which isn't news.
Then, when I want to read news from another news source, that would require navigating to another news page.

RSS got the huge advantage of having all news at the same place, just like you receive email from different senders in one email account.

I mean I get RSS used to have advantages like that

But the reality is that RSS is dead and relying on that or hoping for some fix is a fools errand

Also what are you using that reads RSS but somehow doesn't have a browser. At this point unless you're getting SMS text of your RSS feed on a Motorola Startac 'needs a browser' is kind of an odd thing to be complaining about?

Welcome to 2021 where an E-Mail can even be HTML-rendered stuff.

Anyways RSS-feeds were never designed for news-feeds to begin with. RSS-feeds are more like news-tickers (e.g. having a calendar notification or pop-ups on your smartphone). For the actual news you always had to get to the source of the feed

You can read it within the Client and the Mobile app.

Can I read the rest of my news on the client/mobile app?

[Satoru]

One can assume you can basically load chrome and
1) run your rss feed through it
2) read steam news through it

I use Thunderbird for email and RSS and I get the RSS in english.
I use this "https://steamcommunity.com/games/593110/rss/" and "https://store.steampowered.com/feeds/news.xml"

Here is how it looks for me.
