I’ve gotten to a point in my privacy journey where it’s less about moving towards private options, and more about relaxing and having some fun with what I can do.
I put off messing around with RSS for a while. I simply didn’t have a significant need for it. However, after finding no good options to monitor various Lemmy communities without logging in, I decided to try out an RSS reader.
I settled on Feeder as my RSS reader, despite a few missing features I would like. I added my first Lemmy community as a feed, to try it out. I was immediately surprised how well it worked.
I also added other feeds, such as Tails News, and I was happy with that. I could monitor all the communities I needed to.
Then, I noticed one day, there was an RSS button for my Lemmy inbox. This is where I was really pleased: I can view my notifications without the need to log in, all in the same place.
Lemmy and RSS are both incredible, and I truly believe RSS is the hidden backbone of the internet. I love it, and maybe you should give it a try too!
(Ahem P.S. if anyone has an RSS reader as good as Feeder for Android that fixes this issue, please let me know)
There’s always decsync but despite the author claiming it isn’t dead, I say it’s dead. 😥
Exactly. Otherwise, DecSync would be perfect (and I even used DecSync in the past).
@Adda @DrDystopia For Rss I’ve been using “SpaRSS DecSync” with Syncthing exactly for local rss feeds synced across my devices. It works, but yeah it would be nice if the ecosystem around DecSync were more live, more apps implementing it, to have more choice.
