RE: [New] SteemDaily.Press

in #steemit6 years ago

I didn't want to assume I could create a feed from someone else blog directly and use it without permission.♥️ That's why I went the route of just curating links already publicly shared on Social Media, considering sharing a link on those sites (by their license) constitutes the right of other users to re-share the URL/meta-data. Otherwise I would have to ask each person for permission I think (I think? — not sure... and because not sure, error on safe side. I don't want to hear ANYONE's mouth that I'm capitalizing off their feed or anything negative.... /end rant/)

I was thinking of maybe subleasing some of the feeds, since they're ad free and pull more than the free version of the feeds... but I'm not sure what's reasonable to ask for setting them up and all that. They still stay under my own account and stuff. And I don't like to have people relying on me in that way (and give them another reason to talk smack if something goes wrong lol.)

The site I'm using is FetchRSS and the basic account is 25 feeds for $5USD/month or 250 for $10USD/month. There's also a free version which isn't ad free but still good.🌈♥️😍

I hear that. If for some reason you ever want to use something of mine, please feel free to do so; I don't usually share things like Steem-centric posts to Twitter because my audience there really doesn't care, not because I don't want it shared. Everything should go as far as it can as far as I'm concerned.

It looks like the RSS option doesn't do what I would really like, which is take whole posts and put them onto my own domain so that people who aren't on Steem could read them. I could feed in the index but I'm not sure that's worth all that much. It's much more useful for the sort of thing you're doing.

You can do that with js I think. There was a tutorial around here. Is it another blog post/page, static page, or something else?

At the moment it's an empty domain, so it could be pretty much anything.

@tcpolymath looking into this and will get back to you :)
