I second that excitement! When I first found RSS, it felt like rediscovering the original intent of the internet. It gives you full flexibility of your sources of information all in one place, without giving your data away to a corporate entity, or signing up for any platform for that matter.

Tbh it is such a breath of fresh air compared to the feeds and platforms we've become accustomed to--and RSS has been around longer than them, which is crazy to me.

I just hope websites on the internet continue to support it--as many older, not as common technologies often get phased out.

You can turn newsletters into RSS feeds anonymously through Kill the Newsletter.

I've been using it for over a year and it works flawlessly. Highly recommend!

Is there a specific repo for it? I can't seem to find it with a search on F-Droid

+1 for crashing after sleep on external screen with Nvidia. Are there any fixes or updates being worked on as far as anyone knows? This is a major issue but the only one I've run into on Wayland.

535.183.01 Nvidia driver with GTX 1060.

I'm also a noob so if I'm running the wrong driver or something I wouldn't be surprised

I posted a similar question a few months ago if you want some more ideas :) (also looking to develop/design an open source app -- hmu if you want to collab on one!)

What about Servo?

This is really cool! Congrats on bringing it to completion. I would love to do something similar one day 😁

I've thought about this for a while actually. I think the hardest thing to balance would be privacy. With a FOSS-oriented platform like this, and a broad amount of features like Facebook, you would have to have the users sacrifice a certain amount of real-world data to have these all be linked, and convenient. It could be encrypted in some way, so at least the instance's server wouldn't be able to read the data, but across users you would. I think a new line or definition would have to be made for people who want to use something like this. Most people, though, probably wouldn't care. And a FOSS version would 100% be better than Facebook's servers, where the data is mined and sold.

I've been using GrayJay which has been the game changer for me. I know it's not completely FOSS, but I feel like it is an amazing step in the right direction. I have access to my YouTube sub's AND the Odysee/Peertube/etc counterparts. So as channels transition, the subscribers can too. I feel like this is the necessary direction for more adoption, since like you and others have said, Odysee and Peertube don't have enough main channels for incentive

Proton's alternative to Google Docs getting closer? 👀

This could potentially speed up the possibility of a Google Doc alternative in Proton Drive's future too 👀 I see exciting possibilities here

There seems like a lot of potential for an app like this with the mixture of decentralization/encryption/verification/blockchain/etc. Easily verify artists, get the artists paid with a determined currency or by merch and donations, have it federated or decentralized so artists have more control and a company can’t take percentages.. I don’t know. There has to be something there. It seems possible and almost a necessity in the future for artists to make money and corporations to not enshittify each app that is released. For example, spotify adding features to try to be like TikTok, or recently they were trying to add “educational courses” to the app
