Isn't RSS better than all other federation protocols?
You have four properties of feeds: category, tree-comment, real-time and persistent.
Reddit was the winner on all those except real-time.
Decentralization is now the most important feature, and taking responsibility of your own data is the best version of that.
The only missing part is decentralized RSS servers and clients. Think backup for your posts and RSS reader services that also backup your favorite feeds.
All you need for that is a distributed db underlying it all like this: http://root.rupy.se http://root.rupy.se and a reader web tool.
The only feature we lack is a category (think hashtag) for RSS.
So a combination of all services below:
http://fuse.rupy.se http://fuse.rupy.se
http://sprout.rupy.se http://sprout.rupy.se
http://tentacle.rupy.se http://tentacle.rupy.se
http://talk.binarytask.com http://talk.binarytask.com
Add mail and video hosting/streaming and you got the complete deal.
- eviks 3y agoHow do you like and reply within RSS?
- captn3m0 3y agoThere’s some folks using web mentions to implement those. https://ruk.ca/content/using-freshrss-blog-posts-webmention https://ruk.ca/content/using-freshrss-blog-posts-webmention https://mikevdv.dev/blog/2022-07-05-web-mentions https://mikevdv.dev/blog/2022-07-05-web-mentions
- bullen 3y agoThe whole like score rank thing is kinda overblown. Reply works fine and comments too even if only local.
- ttepasse 3y agoThere was once the Salmon protocol for enabling replies and comments swimming upstream. Salmon was part of the OStatus protocol which evolved into ActivityPub today.
