"I'll bet [Google] Reader looked bad on the balance sheet but the follow-on benefits of knowing who was reading and liking what posts and which blogs were influential were incalculable."
Cuando veo que los pódcast solo están disponibles en una plataforma, o cuando se nombran solo dos o tres, me da muchísima rabia.
El podcasting era el medio del contenido abierto. Del feed RSS. De elegir el reproductor con el que te sintieras más cómodo.
Ahora cuesta trabajo encontrar el feed RSS para suscribirte fuera de Apple Podcast o Spotify, si es que existe ese feed RSS.
Así que, por favor, podcasters de mi corazón: HACED VISIBLE EL FEED. Y bien grandote.
@gabriel Interestingly #PaleMoon ignores the styling and description of the #RSS feed, because it is a RSS reader (it never removed that functionality from #Firefox) and has its own styling for feeds. It's not necessarily a bad thing though! If you're using a reader then you probably don't need the styling anyway :sagume_think:
I've always wanted an RSS feed of only the interesting stories, blog posts, and longreads that make it to the Hacker News front page. Thus, I am happy to announce that I've just made and released one: https://feedle.world/hacker-news
Chyba jestem na takim etapie, że dalsze odwlekanie powrotu do czytnika RSS to robienie samej sobie krzywdy...Polecicie/odradzicie jakiś sensowny na Mac OS (jakby dodatkowo nadawał się też na czytnik ebooków bazujący na androidzie, to jeszcze lepiej)? Szukam czegoś, co z jednej strony nie będzie przeładowane, ale z drugiej będzie dość funkcjonalne (możliwość tworzenia kategorii, bezproblemowego kopiowania linków czy tekstu, zasysania treści a nie tylko tytułów itp.). Polecicie coś?
Scratching my head at an Emacs issue: Elfeed-org doesn’t seem to load my feeds. I’m not sure why, everything looks OK. I have my feeds.org and I have the path defined in rmh-elfeed-org-files and it does show the value it’s supposed to have.
What @Vivaldi don't say in their release blog post of version 6.7 today: if you use the updated Vivaldi Feed Reader to watch subscribed youtube channel videos, you don't get to see any ads. Not sure how long this will work until Google shuts shuts this circumvention down, but right now if you're sick and tired of youtube ads, just use Vivaldi's feed reader (it's a great browser/mail program for everything else anyway)
Note that if you do that, you may want to consider other ways to support the folks who produce the videos, (which is generally the case with adblocking. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Make sure that people who create things you enjoy get something in return).
What are some popular #rss services? I'm not looking for standalone applications, I already use one of those. I'm more curious about things that currently exist that were like google reader or like newsblur?
> Alternative search engines are neat, as are RSS feeds. OpenOrb is a self-hosted app which allows visitors to search over a list of blogs you love. If you put your 10 favourite blogs in there, it'll search just those blogs and not show you any sponsored content or machine-generated garbage.
#Threads reminds you after 30 days of sharing to the fediverse that you’re doing it and gives the option to go turn it off if you don’t want it anymore.
@matt@tchambers ... and to continue a little bit, #RSS is a good litmus test, because they could turn on right now. It's a known entity. They can put sensible rate limits etc. in place and we can consume their content without that app of theirs.
But that's exactly what they don't want.
By making open-web APIs cumbersome they can own more content. Most brands like the NBA etc. aren't going to turn on Fediverse sharing if it is opt-in, and they also own the discussions around topics like that.
