I wrote an app that makes it possible to have your Lemmy saved posts in a RSS feed. For example, if you’re like me and save posts because you want to come to them later when you have the time.

How to do it?

Few simple steps:

• you must be logged in to lemmings.world instance
• you visit https://lemmings.world/rss/init
• the response will contain a JSON string which contains, among others, the unique URL of your RSS feed (looks like https://lemmings.world/rss/4e64935e0613f6e2e03cd420f71df14476e769b11704652921c1a7b2150f0888)
  • the URL can be accessed publicly, but the URL is completely random and cannot be guessed
  • that means no one will find out by accident, but if you post the link publicly anywhere, everyone has access
  • if the URL ever gets compromised and you’d like to remove it, send me a PM
  • by default you only get posts, but you can modify it by adding optional parameter include
    • it’s a comma separated list that can contain posts and comments
    • ?include=posts - only posts (same as omitting the include parameter)
    • ?include=comments - only comments
    • ?include=posts,comments - include both comments and posts
• afterwards just put the URL in your favourite RSS client
• if you ever forget the URL, just visit https://lemmings.world/rss/init (while logged in), you can copy the URL again

If you’re from another instance, you can either join lemmings.world or ask your admins to include the RSS app on their instance as well, it’s open source and can be found at https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmyPersonalRss
