RSS feeds added into eSteem website

[esteemapp]

RSS is simple yet powerful technology that allows anyone to receive updates to web-based content of interest. We are excited to share that we have added RSS feeds into our website.

Steem is full of content and one of the ways to allow anyone to read things they are interested in right inside their feed reader is rss feeds.

RSS gives a lot of other opportunity for content creators and consumers, for example, automated exposure into other social networks, following favorite author's blog, following favorite tags/topics, get notified or alert on new content, increase productivity, stay informed on topics that interest you and many many other ways.

Examples

Tag based

• https://esteem.app/trending/steem/rss
  it would give you trending posts on steem tag.

• https://esteem.app/hot/blockchain/rss
  this would give you hot topics on blockchain tag.

• https://esteem.app/created/cryptocurrency/rss
  would return newly created posts with cryptocurrency tag.

Account based

• https://esteem.app/@esteemapp/rss
  It would give RSS feed of @esteemapp account's blog posts.

You can also get RSS link from profile page.

Excellent, RSS feeds will excite the hard-core internet marketing community. I'll blast this one out to my network of friends.

Now, here's hoping the steemians who own websites incorporate the RSS feed on to their own sites. If you have a list, please consider putting a feed on your email signature too.

Top effort!

[esteemapp]

Excellent idea on how to use RSS feeds. Feel free to make a post on how to set it up and share it with us.

I may be able to utilize this new option with the "If this then that" website so a user could auto send new Steem post notifications to Twitter, Facebook, and other social media outlets.

Exactly, IFTTT is one of the best ways to utilize RSS for social sharing. 👍

[chunkysoupsvc]

I've been slowly switching over to your dapp but with the RSS update I will probably move all or most of my activity to esteem.

The tag based rss feeds are broken atm ..

Cannot GET /created/cryptocurrency/rss

Good

Ohhhhhh well done!!!!! I've been on DSound's case for a while to add this, but you did it first.

I wonder, is it possible to add the posibility to embed an audio file much like we do to a photo or video by URL? I know you can embed a SoundCloud iframe at the moment, but it would be amazing if one could just embed an MP3 or Wav url and it appears as a nice looking audio player like this one:

Or is there a limitation in the markup language?

Thanks.

[esteemapp]

We can certainly check this out! Not all steem posts have audio, in case of dsound, do they have audio file url in json_metadata of post? We will check for sure.

[adetorrent]

Thank you for the response. DSound is all audio, so they use IPFS to store the audio, then their frontend runs some script from what I can see from page source. It looks like SoundCloud.

What I mean is, I can embed an image in a post by simply using the {![] () } formatting.. or just drag a YouTube URL into Steemit/eSteem and it will auto-embed. I wish there was something like that for audio like mp3 or wav.

[esteemapp]

I see, <audio> tag should be easy to add, but majority of Steem apps disable it for security reasons. Because you can potentially hijack script inside audio tag. But unified audio player embed would be good to have, from what you said, dsound is doing just that with soundcloud audio player.

[adetorrent]

Ah, makes sense. Thanks.

[jarielomaa]

Thank you for the RSS feature! I have been hoping and waiting for this ever since I started using Steem. I consume most of my news as headlines through an RSS reader and now I can add Steem there as well. This will save a ton of my time.

[esteemapp]

That's great to hear @jarielomaa! 🚀

[foxkoit]

We have here lot users who can shere lot cool posts.
