Ever wanted to have an RSS feed in Lemmy? Well now you can!
rss.ponder.cat is set up to mirror any RSS feed into a community. You can subscribe to the feed like any other community and you’ll get every new story as a Lemmy post.

Leave a comment with any RSS feed and I’ll create a community for it, and then you can have RSS in your Lemmy.

As someone who has been using RSS readers multiple times per day since 2009, I like the idea of being able to have threaded conversations with you lot on the stuff I’m reading all day.
I like RSS but there’s no way to sort through the actually interesting content vs. just literal ads (looking at you, TechRadar).
Crowd sourcing the content helps.
Yes. I want to avoid having it become spam, so I decided to be careful which RSS feeds I add to keep the human-to-bot ratio up.
I mean you can leverage the votes of Lemmy to drown out ads from otherwise-interesting sources.
