I would love the ability to get a feed from users I follow. Right now I have to add them all individually to my reader which makes it more difficult to manage and sync as I'm trying to read more articles on the platform. |

Afaict forem currently can give an RSS feed of the whole platform, e.g. https://dev.to/rss ; you can also get a feed of all the posts from a specific user: https://dev.to/feed/thomasbnt.
It would be pretty cool to get your own feed, from the tags and users you subscribed to, in an RSS feed, something like
/rss/{user}?timeslice=T
withT
being something like5months
,5years
, to return posts from the user subscriptions in[now-T, now]
.I don't know if authentication should be handled, as this would allow anyone to access anyone else's feed. However, most (if not all?) RSS clients do not handle a
Basic-Authorization
header ; might be circumvented by passing a query paramtoken=base64-token
. If so, tokens could expire but that would be quite bad UX to have to regenerate a token every week/month/year to update your RSS feed link in your app(s).Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
