makes feeds for sites that do not offer them

/\_/\ ( =.= ) bridge under maintenance... again. > ^ <

some sites won't offer rss — rss-bridge makes it anyway. it watches the site for you and turns it into a feed that your rss reader can ingest. it is a bit clanky :v

make a feed

open rssbridge.solarcat.eu and find the site you want — use the search box (youtube, bandcamp, and many more are in there).
fill in the field it asks for (a link, a channel name…).
click generate feed — you get a long, ugly url. that's fine, it's a feed!
copy that url and paste it into freshrss as a new subscription. if it worked, that's it!

! be warned: this one is unreliable by nature. a lot of sites simply don't work — the bridges are maintained by the community, and when one breaks, there's nothing we can do about it. expect some feeds to fail or go quiet; when that happens, try again later or try a different site. when it works, it's magic. when it doesn't, it doesn't do anything :D
