Yeah, because anything that isn't a big new JavaScript framework is just way too complicated

There is if you want RSS feeds for things like Lemmy search. And if you want the links in feed items to be associated with a single instance. AFAIK, regular Lemmy feeds dont provide that. But ofc people can use Lemmy feeds if they want.
Totally understand! Social media and the constant flow of information in our feeds can be so detrimental to our mental health. If you do consider coming back, RSS feeds may be better for you. They allow you to control your sources, how frequently you see content, and you can even filter things easily. It's just like any normal feed on any website, but you can add different websites and sources to it and it just gives you way more control over your level of consumption online. Here's a good article about how RSS feeds help with our mental health if you're curious. Always put your health before all else, and wishing you all the best!
Nice! I was looking for something like this the other day. Also great that it's available on Flathub.
Who are these people downvoting these posts? 😆
Announcing my departure from ~~moderation~~?
since you're quitting Lemmy entirely? I'd ask why but I'm sure that's probably a little too personal. If it's related to the moderation of those subs, it may make sense to disclose that, though. 🫡
If you are using RSS, you are just lurking, then you wouldn’t get to vote.
Sorry but the assumption that people using Lemmy RSS feeds are just lurking and not actively participating comes off as a little naive.
In fact, the whole post makes a lot of assumptions that I dont think are accurate, which makes it difficult to wrap my head around whether a solution is necessary or if this is really a problem to begin with.
This assumes that people who are interested in a community are subscribers, which isn't always the case. Users like me who subscribe to RSS feeds for communities, for example. This also doesnt account for people who might create a new or alt account. Wouldn't they have to resubscribe to every community just to get their votes counted?
How does getting ratio'd strengthen the OP's argument? It just shows how controversial it is, which diminishes the support for what's being suggested.
It will be fixed. It's gov. So baby steps. The EU is working hard and it's going to be a while before we get everything we want.
You can get an RSS feed for a Lemmy search term e.g.
