Why YSK: If we want to keep the Fediverse in the hands of its users and prevent “enshittification” (search it), it’s good to know how corporations kill grassroots projects like this.

I saw this in another thread on /c/Showerthoughts. I think it’s important for this to be circulated widely so that the broader Fediverse community is aligned. We don’t want admins second-guessing their decisions when users start infighting. We should be united in our thinking and ready to protect our platform.

      Annoying. RSS is a superior platform for sitting through the firehose of content.

      You can still use it of course, and I do. It’s just annoying that it’s largely unheard of.

        So many sites don’t even provide RSS anymore. It used to come enabled out of the box for every content management system, now only in the large old ones like Drupal.

          It’s enabled by default in Wordpress but not visible. You’ve just got to use the right URL which is the same for pretty much every Wordpress site.
