This is my personal site for my projects and other random stuff I feel like uploading. A lot of it comes in the form of micro-blogs and stream of consciousness ramblings.

+

You can subscribe to my extremely infrequent blog via RSS: /blog/feed.rss

RSS - A Follow-up

+

Get an RSS reader and connect everything to it!

+

Between switching to Mastodon for my social media allowance, and using + a dedicated RSS reader has really cut down my overall consumption and + wasted PC time.

+
+

this blogpost is originally posted to my gemini gemlog: gemini://senders.io/gemlog/2022-12-31-rss-a-follow-up.gmi + which is where I do most of my writing, converting some useful to share + things over here. It is also where the original RSS gemlog this is a + follow-up to was posted. For context, I wanted to cutback on a lot of + my web consumption, wasting time and just being mindless online. So I + looked to RSS to help centralize and solve this issue.

+
+

Recap

+

So I am using https://tt-rss.org/ as my RSS + aggregator. It’s a self-hosted RSS aggregator that, using profiles, + allows you to subscribe to multiple feeds and have them “synced” + between multiple devices (they’re not synced, you’re connecting to a + central server). I like this because I don’t ever have to worry about + dismissing, reading, or marking anything on my phone to have it still + present on my PC. And I don’t have to worry about feed subscriptions + or my phone pinging a bunch of feeds, or obviously, any third-party + hosting.

My Markdown -> HTML Setup

-

A common way I see a lot of people blog, especially micro-blog, is in - markdown.

-
-
-

Markdown is a lightweight markup language for creating formatted - text using a plain-text editor.

- Wikipedia | - Markdown -

-

It built itself on-top of common syntax prevalent on the web and was - designed to be converted into simple HTML output. Since it leveraged - preexisting syntax it was easy for new users to pick up, and is now found - all over the web and applications.

-

Since I started this website, I had been writing each page by hand - using a few tools to facilitate that - and for a while I had been looking - for a good way to try out using markdown to generate some lighter pages - and these blogposts.
