#askfedi I remember someone posting awhile back about a #Firefox extension that collected #RSS feeds as you browsed, but I can't seem to find it anymore in the mastodon search or in Firefox's extension search. Anyone know of such an extension?
@Neblib I think that was me looking for one. Sadly none seem to be perfect. Sage-like seems to be the best at the finding feeds though you just have to run it on each page. The other ones just didn't seem to catch anything I was primarily testing on government websites with multiple feeds though so they may work for you. A lot of other extensions had scanners they claimed worked on the domain but that just didn't work for me.
@Inextinguishable_Ravings definitely possible it was your discussion, and possibly (the only thing matching in my notes vault) I might have mixed that memory with reading about https://streetpass.social/ which does the collecting of opted-in mastodon users as you browse. Bummer you weren't able to find a perfect one, but thanks for the recommendation to look into Sage-Like.
@Reshirams_Rad_Slam yeah the one I remember reading about was similar to the add-ons that re-enable the rss link (some also add in previews), but instead of only doing that it added any found feeds to some local storage mechanism, and when you wanted to export it'd give you a OPML file to load into your favorite feedreader.
