Hey @P-Krebs! We have a RSS feed for the featured articles but not per user. We can put this on our backlog, thanks for the request.
Here's the link for main feed: https://dev.to/feed
from forem.
I'm not sure if perhaps this is the best place to chime in (vs, perhaps a new feature request) but in addition to user feeds and the main feed, I can see that topic-specific feeds would be incredibly useful, especially as the amount of original content on the site grows.
Not to suggest copying this implementation by any means, but as a reference, Medium has implemented a standard mechanism (more or less) for extracting feeds (even before they aquired superfeedr) - and they're supported as first class attributes of the following objects:
- User Profiles: an example from my profile
- Publications: an example from the Founding Publication
- Custom Domains: an example using Hacker Noon
There are a few additional features I've discovered, though not all are fully documented in the Medium help knowledge base:
-
Feed of a User's Recommended Read: example using my account - this can be handy for automating the sharing of content liked on the site to platforms like Twitter / Buffer / etc...
-
Truncating the feed to limit the items included in the endpoints (which is handy for usage in systems like inoreader.com or other places where you may want to write code to parse your feed and syndicate the content via social channels or perform other processing).
-
You can get an RSS feed of the latest posts on a specific Medium tag by using the following base url & appending the tag: https://medium.com/feed/tag/ for example a feed of the latest posts tagged with devops : https://medium.com/feed/tag/devops
I wanted to share this information primarily for two reasons:
-
The audience of dev.to is made of developers. RSS is the easiest to use / code against and is also the most widely used technology for both content retrieval & automation, two things developers tend to both enjoy and use if given the chance.
-
The potential impact for expanding the reach of the content and writers on dev.to is probably unmatched in total but specifically given the level of complexity required for you to implement it on the back end and writers to extend the rss feeds and combine them with IFTT / Flow / One of a 1000 RSS services / Lambda / etc... Given that you have some existing support for RSS feeds already in the system, I'd guess that this might be a high-return low risk feature to implement.
Note: I'd be happy to write up some articles and illustrate some uses of this tech as well as beta test any feature implementations using my profile, if you'd like me to. Hit me up here or via the email on my github profile (or over at my dev.to profile)

@dploeger You can find it via https://dev.to/feed/username
, for example: https://dev.to/feed/andy
from forem.
Done. I've submitted a feature request.

Am I blind or there is no feed per topic? Like for https://dev.to/t/ruby
Subscribing to just exact posters, not topics, is pointless and ineffective.

Thanks for pointing that out @theonelucas . We should have a page dedicated RSS FAQs.

Hello @theonelucas , we just updated it
from forem.
Are there any issues with adding an RSS Link tag to pages for the purpose of autodiscovery? I still heavily depend on RSS to consume news & information. I wasn't able to determine the RSS feed for my new blog until I viewed this reported issue.
Example HTML Source
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"
title="I'm a ColdFusion web application developer..."
href="https://dev.to/feed/gamesover" />
from forem.
Done. I've submitted a feature request.
It seems the link is directing back to this issue, I believe the right page you wanted to link is Issue 6368
from forem.
Is it possible to get rss feed for top of week or month
from forem.
Finally did this. Should be live soon.

@benhalpern Great. Can I find any docs about that? I can not find a feed of my published posts. I'd like to use that to post them on twitter.
from forem.
Great. Thanks

Hello @Nakilon , that feature is currently not available. The feature request for it is here.
from forem.
I had to duck it ("Google it", but with duckduckgo) the term "dev.to rss" to know how to subscribe to the RSS feed of dev.to. Couldn't find any link/mention to the RSS feed on the dev.to site.
from forem.
@theonelucas, same here. FAQ still not up to date.
from forem.
That's a great suggestion @JamoCA . Would you mind creating an issue to surface this?
from forem.
Hi @kucukti, would it be possible for you to open a feature request so this doesn't get buried in a closed issue?
Thank you!
from forem.
What posts appear in the personal feed? It certainly doesn't appear to be all my posts. Stuff before Nov '22 is missing
