Will give this a try #1

This is interesting. I use your Safari extensions and was just checking those for new versions and came across this.

I'm using a self-hosted Huginn to do the same sort of thing. Previously I've also tried PolitePol.com with good results (apart from not being able to run it on my server) and to a lesser extent Pipes.digital

Will give this a try soon.

Thanks for pointing out those services. I used to use Yahoo Pipes for this sort of thing, but that was killed many years ago. I had no idea replacements existed here in the 2020s...kind of because I assumed I was the last person on the planet still using RSS/Atom feeds.

If you run into issues, definitely let me know. This package is way underdocumented and under-tested because of the same assumption above (though I use it daily for my personal projects)

Will do.

The New York Times use Huginn which gave it some credibility for me.

Another "Pipes" (which I also used way back) that I found recently is https://n8n.io but I'm yet to try it.

ps: I use Huginn to get RSS results for automated searches of Japanese online stores looking for old games/software
