Ask HN: What's a RSS feed you would recommend?

5 pointsjtwoodhouse9mo ago5 comments

I'm becoming an acolyte of this classic tech. It's a fantastic way to bridge the internet with the simple life.

That said, it can be tricky to find RSS feeds with any consistent methods. I'm curious if there are some go-to feeds or archives out there.

Well, every subreddit is an RSS feed (ex: http://reddit.com/r/artificial/.rss) so if you have a favorite sub or two, you can follow those in an RSS reader.

Likewise, there is the HN RSS feed: http://news.ycombinator.com/bigrss

Also, all arXiv categories have RSS feeds associated with them: https://rss.arxiv.org/rss/cs

and you can also do individual subject classes within a topic:

https://rss.arxiv.org/rss/cs.LG

But of course if you're asking about my favorite feeds, I guess I'd have to say "my own". :-)

Bluesky also:

Bluesky has launched RSS feeds

This is cool and fun because you can use Bluesky as RSS PubSub infra. You simply post as a user and clients can consume via RSS, you rely on Bluesky's PDS or host your own, etc.

Also, all Mastodon users' posts appear in their RSS feed.

Arguably the #Junited2005 thing this month has been about finding good blogs etc; most seem to have RSS.

Eg see: https://mastodon.social/tags/Junited2025

My most reliable way to find feeds is to read things here. Then if I like the article I subscribe to the blog.
