Re; Offering RSS vs Newsletters

I came across an interesting take by Sebastian Sastre on why he uses an RSS feed instead of a newsletter for his blog. I agree with the feed-first position. However, I personally recommend using both. Recommend feeds as a first option but also have a newsletter (which is a publication unto itself beyond just sharing links). I use Buttondown, which is a good service (I think it avoids some of the pitfalls of the services Mr. Sastre notes) and also allows people to follow the newsletter itself […]

I agree with promoting feeds over newsletters for bloggers but recommend additionally offering a newsletter with a feed.

How to lose traffic: Media websites with RSS depending on external services and those services rotting away. Now thousands or ten thousands of RSS subscribers do not get updates, because they depended on some shitty redirect service. So they voluntarily lose traffic for days to weeks until their subscribers find out and resubscribe via (finally) a direct URL.

Social media as we know it today didn't exist when blogging and RSS feeds were getting going.

Still, Simmons' framing of NetNewsWire as an alternative to the outrage generators of for-profit social media works.

I'm reminded of the superhero trope highlighted in Unbreakable. News readers are more than any simple nemesis of social media, but it's not a bad starting place, from which things can get more nuanced.

"For instance is there anything similar to RSS for gopher."
The best way is likely to write a bash script to construct an XML file with a page per channel.

'cURL' should be useful since it support gopher, although you will have to custom script it.

'Lynx' browser also handles gopher quite nicely and you should be able to use the -dump feature and parse what you want.

'sfeed' may also help: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/sfeed_gopher.1.html

$ apt search gopher
$ apt-get install gophernicus bombadillo lynx curl kristall pygopherd sfeed

profit!

Lynx is great for browsing gopher and nntp.

Kristall is a graphical browser with gopher support.

Gophie browser:
"Gophie is the Open Source Gopher browser for Windows, macOS, Linux and many more operating systems with Java support. Gophie allows you to navigate the Gopherspace, read text, watch images and download files with the integrated download manager. If you don’t like what you see, then Gophie is also fully customisable!"
