And what do I do now--if I want it? :lol:
If you click on that, you should get a google news page that looks "the old way"....right? Assuming so...

Just drag the URL (click an hold on the little pad-lock on the left side of the web address bar) to your bookmark bar and drop it.

And if I decide that I don't like it, I can just delete it, right?

    Now I understand. A link with secret magic words. :D
    Well....
    One says https://news.google.com/news/feeds?output=rss&q=politics%ned=in&hl=en-IN
    The other says https://news.google.com/news/headlines?hl=en

    Interestingly if you just type "news.google.com/news/feeds" into the address bar, you get yet another format.

    It's all about how the webserver responds to the request. That stuff after the "?"...those are parameters passed to the server. And asking for "feeds" is a different page request (theoretically) that gets "news feeds" in news-feed-format.

    Just save the damn link. ;) :p

    Nope. No, stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

    As long as I don't have to install and uninstall anything, I'm good. OTOH, it's sorta similar to my Edge (old IE), so I don't even think I need it.

    Gone now! Night, Atty, Dale!
