Atom/RSS Feeds from Topics or Tags? #50

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

So, Feedbin offers a "Starred" feed as a way to integrate Feedbin content into other feed-reading APIs or apps. Why not offer an Atom/RSS feed for all topics/tags/categories in Feedbin, so that users could use whatever feedreader app they wanted with Feedbin?

At present it looks like there is no trustworthy (Libre or Open source) app for Feedbin, but if there were Atom/RSS feeds then I could use any number of existing feed readers to subscribe.

Is this possible already, and I'm just missing something? :)

Not sure I understand.

How is this different then just subscribing to the original RSS feeds? What value is Feedbin adding for this use case?

Feedbin provides a nice way to do curation, categorisation, and filtering of feeds in one place - it would be nice not to have to do this again on every app or feedreader I use.

The fact that Feedbin provides a feed for one usage suggests that it ought to be straightfoward to offer it for others. I was just surprised that it doesn't do so.
