Ever wanted to have an RSS feed in Lemmy? Well now you can!
rss.ponder.cat is set up to mirror any RSS feed into a community. You can subscribe to the feed like any other community and you’ll get every new story as a Lemmy post.
Check it out:
!arstechnica_science@rss.ponder.cat
Leave a comment with any RSS feed and I’ll create a community for it, and then you can have RSS in your Lemmy.
Check it out!
TL.net would be great for esports news https://tl.net/rss/news.xml
if tl is too short for a community name, maybe tl_net or teamliquid_net or something like that
it will be a good source to cross-post from (I wish Lemmy users used cross-posting more)
Ooh, this is very interesting. I’m a sucker for emulator progress reports, just a fascinating intersection of programming, graphics, and gaming. My personal RSS feeds right now (which I’d love to add lemmy discussion to) are:
https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/feeds/ https://pcsx2.net/blog/rss.xml https://www.libretro.com/index.php/feed/ https://blog.ryujinx.org/rss/ https://xenia.jp/feed.xml
I made !emulator_announce@rss.ponder.cat with all of those feeds. I’m not sure, but I think that will be more useful than breaking it out into a bunch of communities and letting people deal with them individually. Is that just as useful for you?
This is awesome! I feel like you’ve really improved Lemmy with this. Be proud!
and
Phys.org does what some of the others do, offer a massive menu of options for the RSS feeds. I picked out their top stories feed only, to cut down on spam. I don’t want to have a huge list of bot-posted communities with no activity. Are there any of the specific ones that you want to have, besides the top headlines?
Awesome, thanks for creating the communities.
Top stories are fine for Phys. 👌
Have a great day, dude.
Hmm, Church and State… I much prefer having a separate RSS reader (FreshRSS in my case) for news, as I see it, and lemmy for more frivolous purposes. YMMV.
Same here. This seems valuable for anyone who would want Lemmy to be a first-class RSS reader. But I prefer to just use my RSS reader and add feeds to that.
I use a combination of RSS feeds provided by Lemmy and the ones provided by openrss.org, which has most if not all news sites nytimes, bbc, etc.
