The basic relationship
A YourFeed installation knows which feeds its publisher wants to read and can assemble those feeds into a familiar chronological stream.
Discovery can stay ordinary
Feed URLs can be exchanged out-of-band. A central directory is not required. Search engines, websites, email, messages, QR codes, optional community showcases, and person-to-person exchange can all be discovery mechanisms.
Public and private follow lists
One idea worth preserving is a simple visibility setting so some followed feeds can be deliberately shown to public visitors while others remain visible only in the local admin interface.
No follower bureaucracy unless we earn it
Complex follower approval, audience segmentation, friends-of-friends graphs, and social CRM features should not appear merely because other platforms have them.
