Back in 2017, my webmaster and I set up a link on Discoveries in Health Policy (upper right) that lets you either subscribe via a blog reader, OR, by email feed.
I described some of this here, partly, to keep track of it myself:

I've been reading about Google (which owns blogger.com) discontinuing the email reader or other supporting services. For example:
https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/10477563
"Email widget going away." One "support note" source from Google Support said that email feeds would stop in July 2021, but experience shows they may have survived til July 2022.
I noticed my own feeds from my website, by email, stopped on July 22, 2022. I'm working on a workaround. I was able to download a list of 500 subscriber emails (the round number suggests this may have been a maximum?).
I am working on getting a different commercial email service for Discoveries in Health Policy. When I do, I will notify prior subscribers (from my Excel name list) how to re subscribe on a new service. And we will post the new email subscription service back at the top of the blog.
