This is fantastic I was wondering how to do this a while back. re blogging for later

Indeed, there are so many recipes and ways to use RSS feeds, googling RSS to "anything" probably will show more, we just mentioned few of them. In future posts, we can create some specific recipes and you can setup with couple clicks.

This is an amazing integration feature to bootstrap custom experiences.

Indeed, so many of us use different medium of communication (discord, telegram, slack, twitter, etc.) All of them could be automated to share relevant content with different audience.

Just a shame all the people I used to follow got fed up with the bullshit and left! Great feature thou been using it daily from ecency website to a mac tray bar app! ;)

This is excellent... I've used http://www.hiverss.com/@brianoflondon/ in a python project but I'll take a look at your feeds as well. Definitely a useful feature.

There's a lot going on updating Podcasting 2.0 which is all built on RSS. Cool things to look at, give me a call if you want to talk about things we can do over there with Hive.

Worth reading my latest post about this: https://peakd.com/hive-136933/@brianoflondon/streaming-sats-back-to-your-favourite-podcast-value-for-value

Thanks for sharing this wonderful feature. It can be very helpful.

Is there a way to automatically attach hash tags to the posts that get shared to Twitter via rss? At the moment my tags don't appear when the post gets shared to Twitter...

RSS include category field, which includes first hashtag, we can think about adding more tags for sure.

Thank you, will check that out. Found out as well, that In ifttt you can add several tags directly after the article and they will get posted automatically

Yes, that's correct. If you want tags to be dynamic you would need to get them from RSS feed which we will consider adding in future updates. 👍
