@jimmylittle @Green_Footballs If the full post fits in an / reader and you've got such a feed setup, there might be no reason for anyone to visit the site directly for them which would skew the statistics.

Anyone got tips or advice on replacing as a text-editor? I very infrequently , with html, css, and a tiny bit of js (and tbh, had mostly been using it to post new blog things by pushing to my git repo).

I've had a look at (https://pulsar-edit.dev/) and just stumbled across (https://kate-editor.org/). Any opinions or recommendations on those or alternatives?

Is it possible to watch all edits/changes in a #GitHub #wiki, e.g. via #RSS? I know the ".atom" ending to the /wiki page, but this only gives me the new pages added and not all changes.

Trusting with any important corporate, organizational, emergency or other public service functions is like trusting Donald Trump to pay his bills. Only far worse.

Nice example of working how it's supposed to:

When decided to stop supporting the code editor, a team forked the project and kept it going as the editor.

This is why right-to-fork is the key open source right.

The photos of this nuclear-powered cruise ship from the 1960’s are wild—it is like a perfectly preserved time capsule, with atom-themed light fixtures and tableware. A small wooden cube illustrates the amount of uranium fuel needed to circumnavigate the globe over a dozen times.

🆕 blog! “Style your WordPress Atom feed”

I recently read Darek Kay's excellent post about styling RSS feeds and wanted to do something similar. So, here's my simple guide to styling your WordPress blog's RSS / Atom theme. The end result is that if someone clicks on a link to your feed, they see something nicely formatted, like this: Prerequisites This involves […]

I've been rediscovering RSS feeds and Feeder has been a delight! I'm curious what other feed readers folks are using and what interesting feeds folks are following?

Hopefully enough folks see this who use RSS feeds to respond

Your catchword is "share", but you don't want us to share. You want to keep us within your walled gardens. That's why you've been removing links from webpages, hiding them deep on your website, or removed feeds entirely, replacing it with crippled or demented proprietary API. FUCK YOU.

You're not when you hamper sharing by removing feeds. You're happy to have customers creating content for your ecosystem, but you don't want this content out - a content you do not even own. Google Takeout is just a gimmick. We want our data to flow, we want RSS or feeds.

We want to share with friends, using open protocols: RSS, ATOM, , whatever. Because no one wants to have your service with your applications using your API force-feeding them. Friends must be free to choose whatever software and service they want.

Hey netizens, do me a favour: if you have a site and it has a newsfeed ( or ), please check it with https://validator.w3.org/feed/ If it fails the validation, please tell the author of your software about it. If you're the author and you don't understand what the validator is telling you, comment here and I'll try to help (others are welcome to help too!)

The world is full of slightly broken feeds. Let's make it a better place.

Challenging question <https://peoplemaking.games/@eniko/110394794029226907>: was Google really responsible for killing off #RSS by phasing out #GoogleReader?
Those that follow me know that at least I for one put at least some weight on @mozilla <http://wok.oblomov.eu/tecnologia/opera-requiem-3/ and https://sociale.network/@oblomov/109902001164978888>, but I still disagree with @eniko's view.
Several in the comments there have already mentioned that alternatives to #GoogleReader do exist, but two comments in particular hit (IMO) the nail in the head:

So I would argue that not only the shutdown of was the primary cause for the demise, but also this was actually intentional, to wipe out from the general consciousness the awareness of the possibility and existence of decentralized, user-controlled forms of content distribution.

Several users have also remarked that RSS and feeds still exist, citing podcasts as primary application (in fact, it could be argued that it's not a podcast if it's not available via RSS).
