Here's a neat #Mastodon trick I just discovered:

You can access an RSS feed of any user's posts simply by adding .rss onto the end of their profile URL — so, for instance:

https://twit.social/@jr.rss

You can then use that link to follow all of that person's posts in Feedly, Feedbin, or any other RSS reading service.

Heck, you can even do it directly in #Chrome, if you want!

@jr
I wish you could use mastodon to follow any ol RSS feed and have its posts show up in yr timeline along with mastodon posts.

@MegaMichelle Now, *that'd* be an interesting touch.

I guess you could kind of create that same effect by using an external RSS reader like Feedly or Feedbin. Just add in the RSS feeds of everyone you want from Mastodon along with the feeds from other sites, and you'd effectively have a Mastodon/general RSS reading client there.

No real way to respond or interact on that front, though, unfortunately. That'd be the downside...
