I'm sick of social media. What are some good RSS feeds that you would recommend? (Yours count too!) (beehaw.org)

I recently got into RSS and I'm trying to discover some feeds. What I honestly don't like is that some websites that use RSS and post a new article every couple hours. I'm looking for more personal blog type feeds. Personal projects. Posts that have a "soul" in them, if you will. If you have some that you love, share it here so everyone can take a look ^^.

And also if you have your own blog or RSS feed, you can share it here too! I don't think that would count as advertisement. I mean personally I would love to check them out!

Have a good day/night, much love.

NPR has some good feeds but you can use Google's RSS features for many things that may not have an official feed:

https://news.google.com/rss

Edit: you can also convert the JSON that Lemmy's API outputs to RSS.

Can you further explain your comment in the edit please?

Not sure what OP is referring to but it looks like lemmy has a built in RSS feed for each community that can be found next to the sort drop down

ex: https://beehaw.org/feeds/c/chat.xml?sort=Active so if you wanted to pull posts in you could do that as well.

Can that be found anywhere in the android app - or is it desktop only?

[–] medicake@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

I haven't tried any of the apps but it will appear if you use your mobile browser. Hopefully that's helpful!

Edit: I'm using connect.

Oh there's an RSS system? I've been playing around with the JSON API and RSS is just another data format like XML so I figured it would be nice to point out that it can just be converted.

[–] medicake@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Totally! Yeah I haven't tried it but it appears to be built into every community which is pretty sweet.

You can use the API to get JSON and convert it to RSS but I wasn't aware that Lemmy already has an RSS system.
