RSS, or why lack of developer imagination will be the end of the open web http://decafbad.net/2020/08/11/rss-or-why-lack-of-developer-imagination-will-be-the-end-of-the-open-web/ #Adayinthelife #Programming #Computers #Rants #misc
@craigmaloney Great read! For anyone else reading the thread: what's a good suggestion for providing a RSS feed for your website that's simple to implement? Is there any way to do it on a Github/Gitlab page?
@andycuccaro @craigmaloney That depends on how your page is generated - in the end, it's just a bunch of files that are made available. On GitHub Pages, you're likely using Jekyll, and all you need to do is enable the jekyll-feed plugin: https://pages.github.com/versions/
@craigmaloney @andycuccaro As long as it's to the benefit of people who *are* on Mastodon, I'm happy :)
