RSS Parrot

Mention @[email protected] in a toot with the address of the site you want to follow. Some examples of what you can request:

An RSS or Atom feed, like https://frockflicks.com/feed
A website or blog, like https://taiwantrailsandtales.com
A Substack newsletter, like https://adrianhon.substack.com
A Bluesky profile, like https://bsky.app/profile/archive.org
A podcast, like https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1269965.rss

RSS Parrot looks up the link in your toot, reads the website, and retrieves the address of its RSS or Atom feed. If this is the first time the site is requested, RSS Parrot creates a new account dedicated to it. This account will send out a new toot every time a new post appears in the feed.

The account's name is derived from the website's address, using only dots between the letters. In this case, it's @[email protected]

The birb replies to your toot with the name of the account parroting the feed.

Follow the RSS Parrot account that the birb gave you. This is important and easy to forget! ;-) You'll see a toot from it in your timeline every time a new post is published on the website.
