TiTiNoNero :__:<p>Ho passato tutto il giorno per rimuovere la ricerca fulltext "client-side" dal mio sito e metterla "server-side". I motivi sono diversi...</p><ol><li>Adesso è decisamente più veloce e ho incluso anche tutte le trascrizioni dei podcast nella ricerca.</li><li>Non trasferisco più 500Kb a ciascun client quando fa una ricerca.</li><li>Non c'è più un file unico in formato <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/rss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rss</span></a> che contenga tutto il testo del mio sito.</li><li>Ora si può aggiungere il mio motore di ricerca su Firefox con 2 click!</li></ol>
Paul Chambers🚧<p>My local funeral home changed its web hosting platform for a corporate funeral industry stock hosting platform, and it doesn't have an <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/RSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RSS</span></a> feed because corporate funeral home service industry provider wants you to visit the website to hawk its merchandising—flowers, caskets, trinkets, hardcopy guest books, etc, all the things they get a commission on.</p><p>I read the whitepaper for sales and marketing from the big corporate funeral service provider that says just that. It read that merchandising makes up 60% of the profit that a funeral home gets on an annual basis. </p><p>RSS kept me in the loop. I still visited the obits and left condolences and saw their merchandise.</p>
Davide Eynard (+mala)<p>What is your setup for following/reading <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/RSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RSS</span></a> feeds?</p><p>I wanted to have something I could have full control on, sync across devices, and that I could use offline. My final solution is <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FreshRSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreshRSS</span></a> running as a Docker container on my raspi, and <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://indieweb.social/@NetNewsWire" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>NetNewsWire</span></a></span> on my phone… Perhaps a bit overkill 😅 but it does exactly what I want!</p>
Vivaldi<p>You can follow blogs, news and YouTube creators with a built-in feed reader. It’s like RSS never left.

Robert Kingett<p>If you’re really curious, go to the all posts section of your RSS reader and then change the ordering from what it is now to oldest to latest. Browse the older content of some of your RSS feeds. I know you’ll find a couple hidden gems. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past day and it’s really Interesting! Some of my feeds go all the way back to 1996. It’s like the most accessible time machine ever! <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/RSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RSS</span></a></p>

marado<p>I miss the "old" days when every website with a news section had an <a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/tags/RSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RSS</span></a> feed for it...</p>

TiTiNoNero :__:<p>Today, for the first time ever, I had a look at my webserver's logs. I wanted to check if the rules I set on the .htaccess file to block this huge amount of bots and crawlers were correctly working... I'm not an expert for that part, I just mess around copying and pasting.</p><p>I was surprised by the fact that the vast majority of the requests I get to my website are coming from the Fediverse even before I implemented the bots blockade. I love seeing this variety of requests by hundreds of Mastodon (and other AP implementations) instances, followed by a number of RSS feedreaders and podcast players.</p><p>I'm really loving how things are going in my social-digital life.</p><p><a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/smallweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>smallweb</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/digitalgarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>digitalgarden</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/rss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rss</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/blog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blog</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/website" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>website</span></a> <a href="https://goto.77nn.it/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a></p>

Renne Rocha<p>Eu instalei o Capy Reader no meu celular hoje e estava procurando alguns blogs para colocar inicialmente no meu feed. Sem querer encontrei o <a href="https://blogroll.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blogroll.org/</a> que tem uma lista de vários blogs de pessoas aleatórias sobre diversos assuntos. Encontrei algumas coisas bem interessantes por lá!<br><br>Pena que ainda não encontrei um aplicativo legal para ler no meu desktop.
