How about tlnet? I just made !tlnet@rss.ponder.cat.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.

!rcv@ponder.cat

It’s on the ballot statewide in six states so far, and it’s already in action in a bunch of places. Almost everybody who isn’t a malicious establishment politician likes it wherever it gets tried. Read the sticky post to learn more.

It is and I could. I’d be fine doing it, but why not just read them when they come up in !fediverse@lemmy.world? I’ve been trying not to create communities that are going to be duplicates or spam, or split the user base between one way of reading articles and another way of reading articles. Do you want it as a DM, maybe?

I think an even better way would be software that can follow the original Wordpress feed, if they have one, but Lemmy can’t do that right now.

Not a problem at all. I think a better way to do that will be to let moderators of existing communities add the bot to their existing communities. Someone asked about doing that, and it’s easy to set up the bot to make it possible, so I think I’ll just do that instead. I don’t need to create a duplicate community for anything that’s already got one.

I’m fine with the existing structure, with one community per periodical. I tried !coding_blogs@rss.ponder.cat and !science_streams@rss.ponder.cat and it looks like some people are into that type of structure, but I’m thinking mostly in terms of one-periodical communities or moderators from off-instance communities being able to add things.

Are there any that you would cherry-pick that you think you would personally use? I’d be perfectly willing to add them, if so.

I don’t think that the Austin or Texas communities are useful as communities. Do you mind if I delete them?

Are there other feeds from your OPML that you would really like to have in Lemmy?

Yes. I want to avoid having it become spam, so I decided to be careful which RSS feeds I add to keep the human-to-bot ratio up.

It’s a hacked-together python script. Should I try to clean it up and open source it? It’s not well-organized right now, though.

Let’s have it 😄

I just set it up. Everyone’s afraid to break the seal.
