PhotoRumors email subscription no longer available, looking for alternatives

The PhotoRumors email subscription is no longer available. Google decided to kill the service (called Feedburner) I have been using for 15 years. While I am looking for an alternative solution, you can follow the latest PhotoRumors blog posts on Facebook, Twitter, and RSS feed:

I assume at some point Google will also kill the Feedburner RSS feed, so it could be a good idea to switch now to the default https://photorumors.com/feed/.

PhotoRumors can also be found on Instagram, YouTube, and Flickr but I am not very active on those channels:
