I follow Hacker News through RSS, as well as most webcomics that I follow.
There is one webcomic I enjoy, but can't get an RSS feed, because it's on a service similar to WebToons.
- alserio 5y agoSome days ago there was a ShowHN (if I'm not misremembering) of a tool to generate RSS for sites that do not support them. I haven't tried it but maybe it can be useful to you Edit: it wasn't a showHN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29772540 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29772540
- k1m 5y agoIf you're familiar with CSS selectors, you could try this that I work on to generate a feed from the webcomic site: https://createfeed.fivefilters.org/ https://createfeed.fivefilters.org/
- alcidesfonseca 5y agoI am looking for more webcomics. Any that you'd recommend to others? I mostly follow Dilbert and Questionable Content. I used to follow Wizard of Id and a few more, but they also lost support for RSS.
- kevincox 5y agoWebToons does have feeds, but they only show the first frame. Then you need to wait 10s for their shitty JS to load before it starts to download the comic. I really want to make a scraper that will pull the full comic into the feed but don't want to play the cat-and-mouse game.
