Personal pain point: Math seems to be a growing topic on the web and tools like MathJax are a popular tool for talking about Math. But (most? all?) RSS readers won't render MathJax. Does anyone have a simple and effective way to handle display issues like that?

There's a bookmarklet that renders Tex/LaTeX, MathML and AsciiMathML notation on pages dynamically using the MathJax.

I use it mainly with feedbin. It works most of the time

You could CDATA a MathJax-produced SVG, but I don't know how well that would be supported in RSS readers. I doubt accessibility extensions would work correctly either.

Isn't there a way to default back to a rendered image if MathJax isn't supported?

That won't work unless you embed scripts into the RSS and run those (which kind of defeats the point of "really simple syndication" and would lead to JS-heavy monstrosities).
