I like using RSS. I experimented with trying to get threads accounts into my RSS reader using the Mastodon method but just added .rss to the user’s page. Unfortunately doesn’t work.
Mastodon example: https://infosec.exchange/@username.rss
Threads attempt: https://www.threads.net/@nytimes.rss (doesn’t work)
maybe this will work eventually when they federate.
For a kbin.social-hosted magazine, I believe you can go: https://kbin.social/rss?magazine=Technology
There seems to be an overall problem with federation and rss though. Ideally, you would want rss feeds to come in as though you were viewing the content through your home instance in order to facilitate commenting on posts and what not. But I have not found a way to do so. I may wind up writing my own scraper.
oh awesome! thanks for that link - I like that. For me, I like jumping around from rss readers to kbin to mastodon. It seems like the major news orgs might flock to threads. I can’t be bothered to sign up… and I don’t want an instagram account. When threads federates, i’ll just follow nytimes on threads through mastodon and be done with it. Seems like a bad sign for twitter.
You can also follow a person with: https://kbin.social/rss?person=ryand3rk
The NYT is already on Mastodon.
