Since my browser removed the two-click feature for sending a site's feed URL to my RSS reader, I now do a bit more manual work to find RSS URLs myself.
Twitter lost its native RSS support, but Nitter provides RSS links. Example: https://nitter.net/eff/rss https://nitter.net/eff/rss
Reddit provides RSS for most listings, including search results. All you have to do is append .rss to the path part of the URL. Example: https://old.reddit.com/r/hackernews/search.rss?q=web&restrict_sr=on https://old.reddit.com/r/hackernews/search.rss?q=web&restric...
GitHub provides Atom feeds in various places. Example: https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh/releases.atom https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh/releases.atom
When I don't know if a site offers a syndication URL, I fall back to viewing the page source, and searching for these telltale strings: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"
- mocheeze 5y agoI use a reader that automatically pulls feeds from Twitter and other social media like Reddit. Just need to plop the URL into the feed field and they figure it out. I pay for it, but it's pretty nice for getting back to the old Google Reader feel. (https://bazcux.com https://bazcux.com)
- kevincox 5y agoThere are extensions that will give you the two-click experience back. For example I use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/want-my-rss/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/want-my-rss/
