RSS fans!
- You can follow Mastodon accounts on RSS by adding ".rss" to the end of a Mastodon profile's web address.
- You can follow RSS feeds on Mastodon by using the RSS Parrot service (https://rss-parrot.net) which turns feeds into Fediverse accounts.
- PeerTube accounts have RSS options on their follow button, and can be followed from podcast apps.
- Friendica has particularly advanced RSS features.
More info about all of these at https://fedi.tips/following-mastodon-and-fediverse-accounts-through-rss/
@FediTips setup your own parrot bot in mastodon from multiple feeds - https://github.com/mahomedalid/mastodon-rss-dotnet-bot
@FediTips I did not know that, but I’ll have to try it out. Thanks for the tip!
@FediTips Following PeerTube via a podcast application seems especially useful
It is, it's really handy! Many PeerTube accounts are podcasts, you can use PeerTube as a podcast publishing platform if you want.
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services FYI: The #Misskey & derivatives are the same as Mastodon -- add .rss
to the end of the profile URL

@FediTips oh damn! Anyone got any rss parrot accounts anyone recommends to follow on the fediverse?
@FediTips was scrolling the parrot's list of feeds and someone is subscribing to this cute blog with old arabic music (with mp3s!) https://arabicsinglesgoingsteady.blogspot.com/2023/06/aida-al-shaer-ah-ah-min-habibi.html?m=1
Yes! It's so useful and easy and impressive to just enter an RSS feed into search and click follow
It could also get RSS back into the public consciousness if more social networks had this feature. Every Fedi platform ought to offer this.
@FediTips Loooove RSS
