Did you know that #Mastodon supports #RSS feeds?
That means you can follow your favorite people and topics right inside of Thunderbird!
→ Just add ".rss" to the URL ←
For example, our Mastodon URL "mastodon.online/@thunderbird"
becomes
"mastodon.online/@thunderbird.r…"
What about #hashtags? YEP!
Let's look at #OpenSource. From our instance, it is: "mastodon.online/tags/opensourc…"
So, we just append .rss and it works!
"mastodon.online/tags/opensourc…"
REALLY useful if you don't want to miss a thing!

There are a lot of cool things that can be done with this feature. I hope more people can find helpful ways to use it.

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •Much to learn about Mastodon. And this feature is awesome. Really wished several times to be able to subscribe to or even to see some channels on other platforms or even media without having to register.

in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox • • •Really helpful to know.
Thunderbird's excellent support of RSS makes a weekly assignment for which I'm responsible -much- more sustainable than otherwise. Not quite at an existential level, but pretty close.
Hence, taking this opportunity to say Thank You Very Much!

in reply to Doug Bostrom • • •@Doug_Bostrom Well, you are absolutely welcome! I think we can do more to make the RSS functionality better though.
One of the things we're looking at is syncing your RSS feeds sometime after Firefox Sync gets enabled (just not at launch).
