Link takes you to a login page. From the Wikipedia article [1]

FeedBurner is a web feed management provider launched in 2004. It provides custom RSS feeds and management tools for bloggers, podcasters, and other web-based content publishers. Google acquired FeedBurner in 2007.

Whatever this is, it surely wouldn't be wise to depend on this for your business.

It was a very popular service back at the hey-day of blogs and RSS readers. FeedBurner gave blog authors really great statistics and information about the feed, and they created a nice a static URL to point readers to, no matter where the blog was hosted. We didn't have a lot of that statistical information easily available back then (like how many people were subscribed) with the common blog platforms (like Moveable Type or Blogger). FeedBurner also provided a way to interject ads into the feed, since the person reading it wasn't seeing the ads on the normal site.

I believe you're quite right, it would be extremely unwise to use this tool at this point. I'm sure it will be vanquished with no warning.

Google service with a self-generated Traefik certificate, well, I'm not gonna use that.
