Atom feed to be auto-discovereable

Unread post by Schimon » 2025-04-11, 05:24

Please make the Atom Synndication Feed app.php/feed/forum/1 auto-dicovereable from palemoon.org, so that news readers such as Liferea would be able to detect it.

See gemini://woodpeckersnest.space/~schapps/tutorial/2024-11-23-html-custom-syndication-feed.gmi

I think OP is suggesting the forum's RSS be discoverable from the project's homepage too, i.e. www.palemoon.org. I remember a clickable RSS icon being in the website itself linking to the Announcements forum board. I guess OP wants that back plus the link tag. :think:
Off-topic:
OP's gemini host has a gem-to-web proxy at https://gemini.woodpeckersnest.space/, which I used to read their gemini-exclusive content.

That hasn't gone anywhere.

Yes. That would be good over palemoon.org too.

I refer to my articles because it is not sensible to post it as a post over this forum.

Would an HTTP link be acceptable?

It does a cute little dance when hovered/un-hovered. I assume that is not intentional?

It is. It was instated to indicate the hover state when we still had more active social channels (would be a vertical strip, with the hovered one being "lifted out"). It does look a little odd with just the one icon, I agree. I might disable it or change it to a different effect.

The main website doesn't have its own feed, since it doesn't actually contain feed content. Just adding that to the website when it's actually a feed from the forum is wrong, IMHO. I won't be doing that. The top-right icon is there to link to it if you want it.

Looks like it's being blocked by uBlock filters I have enabled which are:
  • AdGuard – Social Widgets
  • Fanboy’s Annoyance
  • Fanboy’s Social
The id of the ul tag that contains the RSS icon has "social" in it which triggers the mentioned filters...

Well it was a social widget strip before. I guess I can rename it or just make it anonymous at this point, if lists are blocking it. :roll:
EDIT: live now. let me know if that dodges the blanket blocking.

Before your change, it didn't show for me either, but it does show now.
