Yesterday I posted about rss.ponder.cat, with communities automatically fed from a selection of RSS feeds. Today I made [email protected], with:

  • A sticky-post roadmap of the RSS feeds that are already available
  • A place for people to request communities to be added
  • A place for me to post announcements about new communities

I don’t plan to spam [email protected] with every new RSS feed, but I figured I would let people know the location of the community that will get announcements about new RSS feed communities, in case they want to subscribe to it.

Cheers!

    The links to the other posts show up below in a cross-posted to section so you can still access it if you want. The limitation on it needing to be the same page comes from this handling happening on the frontend instead of the backend. Ideally imo backend should handle it like how it handles the cross-posts displayed when looking at the post itself

      Yeah, I’ve been thinking it might make sense for Lemmy post to be … almost “tabbed” when they’re link post. So if the link for several different posts is the same you end up with “tabs” for the other communities, that swap you between the titles, descriptions, and comments sections from those communities (and possible a “merged”/“all” tab that lets you see comments from all communities).

      Probably a toggle somewhere for “just communities I’m subscribed to” vs “all communities my instance knows about” as well.

      I’m not sure how exactly to make that look pretty, but I’m confident it can be done.
