The assumption is that every CMS provides a feed on `/feed`, and with a good chunk of the web running on WordPress, which has RSS in the OOBE, you'll find plenty.
For anything that doesn't, I run a scraper to turn its content into an RSS feed that I'll get.
- warrenm 4y agoThe bigger question, in my mind, though, is why some sites don't offer RSS/Atom syndication (or why some choose to disable it)
- kevincox 4y agoTo make finding the feed easier you can use browser extensions that do the RSS auto-discovery protocol. This will use metadata in the website to find the feed with no guessing.
- warrenm 4y agoWhatever doesn't have a /feed option, I'll pop the page source and do a quick search for "rss" or "atom" or "index.xml"
- soniman 4y agoWhy doesn't a site like Feedly immediately convert a blog or podcast url into a feed if I paste it? Or does that feature exist? It's strange that the intermediate process of finding the feed is necessary. I use getrssfeed com
