instructions on how to add a new silo to bridgy.

snarfed commented 2 years ago

@sknebel raised a fascinating idea in chat today: HN has a public firehose, so we could do this service-wide, for the entire site, without needing individual users to auth Bridgy into their accounts. Might be a candidate for https://snarfed.org/backfeed-without-code ?

Also reminds me of #420 and https://telegraph.p3k.io/superfeedr

https://github.com/hnrss/hnrss/ could be useful for this (both for a backfeed-without-code and to base bridgy code on - they also have an older python implementation)

I did this in https://github.com/snarfed/hackermention ! Quick and dirty, very hacky, didn't fully finish or document or write it up. I have the API consuming code and conversion there though, should help if/when anyone wants to try adding this to Bridgy and granary.

One catch: Hacker News doesn't do OAuth, so we'd need to use IndieAuth. Which is fine, we already use it for the FB/Instagram browser extension.
