    Lots of great communities there. And rss is still king ;)

      Totally! I keep hearing about the “death of RSS”, and yet, that’s how I follow most of my online media.

        Yeah Ive seen those articles too. Yet even new social media like blue sky supports rss without an account. Everything on the fediverse does too. Its fantastic.

          RSS support is absolutely my favorite old-web thing that’s still around. It truly is fantastic to have your own curated RSS feeds.

          The Fediverse specifically lets you create them really granularly as well!

      !smallweb@piefed.social

        Its a feed, a piefed specific feature. So its not going to work with lemmy.

          I wasn’t aware of feeds. I noticed the F in the link

            Yeah its an awesome feature. I really like it.

            You can combine peertube subscriptions, Lemmy/piefed communities/mastodon accounts just about anything subscribable to a “feed”. Ex: https://piefed.social/f/fediversevideos

            If you have a piefed account it helps with keeping up with multiple like communities.

              This would explain why the link is not resolving in Summit, Boost and Voyager (my favorite Lemmy clients).
