I am very confused. I was going to create a database with the Pornhub DB dump and then update it regularly but found out that it uses a RSS feed!?
And so does every other pornsite.

Are RSS content feeds still used to update posts on porn sites?
Why don't they make the switch to an API?
How do you get the RSS feed to update or delete things in the database?

I can't find any info on this really, only how to make a RSS feed for your site. Not how to consume Pornhubs or Heavy-D.

Any insight is appreciated.
