Is this another fancy word?
No.

What is different between RSS feed and my simple html file and links to
different sites?

The RSS feed is updated dynamically in real time as and when the syndication
service updates it - your simply HTML file isn't...

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It is a form of XML that is used
to post synopses of articles for others to consume. The file is XML, which
allows the consumer to determine if he is going to even use the link
(although that is common).

It is not the same as a manually updated list of links in an HTML page.

Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is an XML-based format that provides a
simple way to let users know about new news stories in a way that’s
convenient to them. There is a virtually infinite supply of RSS feeds
available on the Internet.

do that:
