Recommended: Use an RSS-to-Email Service

Blogtrottr

In Feed URL, paste the RSS Feed URL from above

The service can also track some SNS accounts and alert you to changes without "following" them

Account creation required

RSS by Email

Paste the RSS Feed URL from above
Customize frequency and delivery

IFTTT is a great option for power users and mobile notifications. I'm a big fan of IFTTT (If-This-Then-That) for several automations with notifications centralized via Pushover for instant delivery management to my watch and phone.

Create a free account at https://ifttt.com
Use the RSS trigger: "New feed item"
Set the RSS Feed URL as above
Choose the action: "Send me an email" or "Send a notification"

Other Ways to Follow the Feed

You can also use an RSS reader or even Outlook mail that supports feeds directly. I use Inoreader to follow all my favorites blogs and news sites that offer XML/RSS/ATOM feeds

Inoreader (Web, Android, iOS — free & pro plans)
NetNewsWire (Free, macOS/iOS)
Reeder (macOS/iOS, paid)
Feedly (Web, Android, iOS)

Summary

For the simplest and most reliable options:

Use Feed2mail or Blogtrottr
Receive comments by email with no setup required
Pro Tip: Setup email alerts using your Pushover email for instant mobile notifications
