A small web service to let you connect your mastodon bookmarks to your RSS reader.
Save interesting posts found on Mastodon into your read-it-later list by using Mastodon's bookmark function.
Use the instance at woodland.cafe or explore the options for self-hosting below.
Normally the generated RSS feed links to the respective bookmarked Mastodon post. However, if the Mastodon post itself contains a link to another website, the RSS item will use the link and title from that website, or rather from Mastodon's link preview.
The purpose of this is to allow automatic prefetching and saving of article content, which is a feature found in a few RSS readers such as Inoreader. In those cases Mastodon (and Twitter) is just being used as a glorified link aggregator.
The original Mastodon post URL and content is still stored in the RSS
<content:encoded> tag, so that additional context can be recovered.
Please see docs/deploy.md.
