Was reading more about h-entry and discovered that since I've been using h-entry on my updates page that all new updates can be read in an RSS reader that supports images and HTML, which is pretty awesome. but now it seems slightly redundant with the manual RSS feed I've been making which doesn't have images and has much shorter descriptions. Do the old style RSS feeds work better in some contexts, like bare bones readers that only grab text?

<glacier> another question, do h-entry link previews work differently than open graph protocols?

Not all readers support h-feed/h-entry - http://granary.io can translate into RSS or Atom from h-feed

[KevinMarks]
Yes, h-entry previews rely on parsing the microformats, whereas OGP is redundant data in the headers. The metaformats proposal is a way to translate them into a common structure

I use granary like that to generate several of my Atom feeds from the mf2 in order to avoid the redundancy. Works great.
