My first @trmnl plugin is available!

https://usetrmnl.com/recipes/106505

It allows you to show your latest @PixelFed publications on you #TRMNL device.

Most of the work was already done by @stephenyeargin in his Pixelfed timeline plugin: https://usetrmnl.com/recipes/103958

@nhoizey Oh! Interesting! Makes me want to see if I could use my old jailbroken Kindle the same way, by pointing it to a web page with my personal dashboards (pixelfed, rss, etc.)

@villapirorum you can do it!

@nhoizey

Yes I quickly found that! Really cool!

Still need to dig a bit to figure out what advantages I would have using trmnl firmware and building adhoc server, compared to just pointing my kindle to any custom webpage of mine.

@villapirorum you could indeed do something similar without TRMNL. But TRMNL comes with many plugins to display different kinds of data.

@nhoizey Indeed ! I might take a look at it at some point, but right now I think I will not resist diging the rabbit hole and implementing my own dashboard, probably learning new APIs on the way !😅🤦‍♂️
