Is a mastodon bot too much to ask? I don't use reddit or twitter anymore.

[–] hybridhavoc@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Would love to see them come to the fediverse, even if it was just something as simple as a bot. Their site is all RSSed up though. Can sub to the whole site here: https://aftermath.site/feed

Or just the Video Games category here: https://aftermath.site/category/video-games/feed

Hallelujah for supporting RSS! Thank you!

[–] panchzila@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have never gone into RSS I'll look into it. Thanks!

If you want to follow on Mastodon follow aftermath.site.feed@mastofeeder.com which just bridges rss to the fediverse.

Note: it will only work for future posts due to the nature of the project

I think only future posts is OK considering it's 1 days old.

[–] panchzila@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Great stuff. Thank you!

Yeah, I don't need a bot / feed for any specific service; give me an open standard like RSS any day.

[–] panchzila@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll look into it. Never have done anything like that.

Try Flym if you're on Android.

It has a great "add feed" that can search for websites with feeds. So you can simply search for "aftermath" and it will find it — as opposed to knowing the feed already, or going on the site and then looking for the feed there.

You can also search for other sites or topics and build your own self-curated news sources without any algorithm.

If you end up not liking Flyn you can export your feeds as an OPML file and move to another app (just make sure that one has an export as well so you don't end up locked in).
