#FeedReader

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Some of my friends have just given up on following the #news, and I don't blame them. It can be pretty depressing right now.

But for me, what keeps me up-to-date-enough but stops me #doomScrolling is to lean on my good old #feedReader (coupled with a little discipline to not glance at the news every time I remember my phone's in my pocket)!

I read the news once, maybe twice, most days, as a bundled digest of mildly-filtered articles. Like taking the time to sit down with a newspaper... but no other interruptions.

It keeps me optimistic enough that I can still focus on the causes I care about the most, without getting bogged down in all the depressing news about nazis burning the world that I'd see otherwise. Highly recommended.

Dan Q · Feed Readers Beat DoomscrollingIf you're dodging news media because the alternative is catastrophic doomscrolling... perhaps you ought to be using a feed reader? It's a much healthier way to keep up with the Web.

Today I implemented a very nifty feature. A way to match subscriptions between BlogCat and any third-party feed reader.

Basically, using an OPML exported from your third-party app. BlogCat will figure out which sites are missing betweem them both and allow you to subscribe to the missing site and also generate another OPML for the other app to match its own subscription list.

Check the video, it is pretty cool.

Boosts appreciated <3

@helpers Die folgende #Frage hatte ich schon einmal gestellt, sie aber irrtümlich wieder gelöscht:

Ich habe mir einen zusätzlichen #Circle eingerichtet, den ich nur als #Feedreader nutzen will. #Feeds, die dort landen, werden jedoch nicht in diesem Circle angezeigt, sondern unter "Alle Kontakte bzw. Kontakte". Was muss ich tun, um die Feeds nur in diesem neuen Circle anzuzueigen und den Rest unter "Alle Kontakte"?

adding tags to BlogCat. Clearly copied from FraidyCat.

A feed can have more than one tag, the navigation menu shows all the tags.

Really enjoying this feed reader, it is already my daily driver. Didn't believe it would replace my previous choices so fast.

I hear a lot of people talking about RSS lately, and that's great! But it's not the only game in town. There is also Atom. Atom is very similar in concept to RSS, but added additional features. It never quite caught on because feeds in general started getting replaced with Web 2.0 walled gardens and things like Reddit at about the same time it came out.

But now with a renewed interest in feed readers, hopefully people will remember it and give it the chance it never got

Hi everyone,

Artfeed is a #rss feed reader designed for artists and #photographers . It lets you follow an artist's work wherever they publish it: their site, flickr, tumblr, Pixelfed or mastodon...

I look forward to your feedback

Actually, I think #RSSparrot rss-parrot.net/ is more what I was after - a way to follow accounts, stay abreast of news and opinions not yet well-represented on Mastodon (or I haven't found them yet).
For now, not ready to post to Bluesky until I see how the bridge behaves (by comparing feeds of bridged accounts, I guess).
I have to say I don't love the look of bsky on my desktop - it's too twitter-like, in yer face.
Hmmm...

rss-parrot.netRSS ParrotHome of RSS Parrot, a free Fediverse service that lets you turn Mastodon into an RSS or Atom feed reader.

Hello #photographers,

For some time I've been working on a web app that allows you to follow photographers and their work through the #rss feeds of their sites, and other #photos platforms or social networks.

It's basically an rss reader, but designed for images.

I'm looking for first users who are interested in the concept and would like to try it out. If you're one of them and have Rss feeds to follow, contact me right here, I'm opening soon!
