ActivityPub outboxes are the new RSS / Atom / WebFeed.
You can just read from them to get a JSON feed of someone's posts.
I.e., you do NOT have to implement the full suite of Fediverse protocols, or Follow, or run your own server, or anything else to get someone's posts on the Fediverse — just read from their outbox.
You can use any RSS reader to follow Pixelfed and Mastodon profiles. For example, you can subscribe to my feeds below:
- Pixelfed: https://pixelfed.social/users/midtsveen.atom
- Mastodon: https://social.Linux.pizza/@midtsveen.rss
2025: Return of the feeds.
@revoluciana I love it when people I follow on Mastodon has a webpage and blog with RSS support, that makes my day!
In the last few days I was working on improving #Emacs #Elfeed to add more possible matches
automatic tagging using the make tagger function.
Also largely rewrote elfeed-autotag to handle more possible matches and optimize the parsing
of configuration file.
Now it can handle any possible new matching keyword by just changing the list of keywords.
#RSS #Atomfeed
Working on integrating #Emacs #Eww with eww-readability directly into #Elfeed.
The middle window is Eww with readability the right one is Elfeed with Eww's readability render
integrated. Embedding partially Eww allows us to fetch the contents of links in #RSS or #Atomfeed items where the feed
item itself does not contain any content.
The Fediverse's usage of rel-self in WebFinger, to point to an ActivityPub Activity file (application/activity+json), seem different than how Atom feeds uses rel-self.
The semantics seem different.
(I am assuming ActivityPub borrowed rel-self from Atom feeds.)
