Source repo, for reference.

What would you use this with these days? I haven't used RSS since firefox ripped out the live bookmark feature.

Not sure about you, but I'd use it with an RSS reader.

I have recently switched to mozilla thunderbird, and one of the <3 moments is definitely the builtin RSS-reader (which I use extensively now that I have it easily accessible on my third monitor).

I like Miniflux[0]. It being a hosted RSS reader means I can easily browse on my PC as well as on my phone.

I started to use Follow [0][1], which uses RSSHub [2][3] and RSS3 [4] in addition to classic RSS.

I subscribe to replies to my comments so I get notifications for them.

Why didn't I think of this earlier

It's a great one! We've been using it for our "Readable HN" collection on Feedle: https://feedle.world/hacker-news. Front Page entries would get checked, and we'd pick ones that we think would be worth reading (based on a few subjective criteria - length, presence and frequency of certain words, mood, etc.)

Of course, it comes with its own dedicated RSS feed: https://feedle.world/hacker-news/rss

I'm using newsboat on my Linux/Termux boxen. Works fine!
