    Firefox removing RSS support was the nail in the coffin for their support of the Open Web. How long after Google Reader was canceled did FF remove RSS?

      Google shut down Google Reader on July 1, 2013. Firefox removed RSS support in version 64 on December 11, 2018, approximately 5 years and 5 months later.
