Chrome drops XSLT on 17 November: what it means for RSS
From Chrome 158, feeds that use XSLT to look like a web page stop rendering. Our RSS feed does not depend on it.
Google is removing XSLT from Chrome. XSLT is an old technology that some sites use to make XML files, such as RSS feeds and sitemaps, look like web pages in the browser.
The timeline
- Chrome 158, 17 November 2026: XSLT stops working on Stable for everyone outside an origin trial or enterprise policy
- Chrome 176, 17 August 2027: the origin trial and the enterprise policy end, and XSLT is off for everyone
For feeds, Google recommends a <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"> in the HTML page, so feed readers find the feed from the site address while people see a normal web page.
What it means for toyfox
Our news page already works that way. The page tells feed readers where the feed is, and the RSS button opens a small panel with the address, a copy button and one-click links for Feedly and Inoreader. Nothing breaks on 17 November.
