Why isn't there one service that combines rss reader and bookmarking?

Can someone please explain RSS to me? I just don’t get it and I’ve been using Firefox since it was Netscape Navigator 2.0

Explain how it works or what it is?
It’s just a feed you can follow (think of following someone on IG or twitter). You’ll get notified about the new content on that feed.
You can subscribe to all the feeds that are interesting to you and now you have a place to read the all and get notified when something new is out.

Imagine you had a feed like Lemmy’s home feed, where things from the places you follow show up in a single feed you can look through and open the items you want to read.
Sites used to publish an RSS feed of everything they posted. GReader was the king like 10 (omfg, 20?) years ago. They they fucking killed it like they do with all their good, non-mail/YouTube projects.

But I’m sure you get the gist
