A while back I built a site that converts RSS feeds to ActivityPub actors that you can subscribe to from Mastodon and other ActivityPub-compliant social networks: https://bots.tinysubversions.com/convert/
I've now also published the source code: https://github.com/dariusk/activtypub-to-rss

Was up late-ish last night reading Weird Fiction, and up early this morning because I woke from a dream and couldn't get back to sleep. Here's what I was reading:
The Ballad of Black Tom, by Victor LaValle: https://publishing.tor.com/theballadofblacktom-victorlavalle/9780765386618/
And the story that it deconstructs/reconstructs from another viewpoint: The Horror at Red Hook, by H.P. Lovecraft: http://www.hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/hrh.aspx
Good morning, #fediverse. Good morning.

I saw a nice little #waterfall in a rock shelter today.

#brutaldon is technically a mobile app, since you can install it (the server) on an un-rooted Android phone (Termux or similar) and use it from a browser on the same phone.

Which would you rather see next in #brutaldon:
a. redraft-and-delete
b. new themes, including dark regular theme, and another full brutalist theme using #brutstrap
c. progressive enhancement for JS-capable browsers (no confirmation interstitial page for boost/fav/etc, #pjax-style links, load-more instead of paging)
d. something else
Boosts okay, but replies preferred.

I've seen a bunch of posts about clients for mastodon but haven't seen any love for the lovingly brutal brutaldon (https://brutaldon.online/about) made by the inimitable @gcupc, so consider this post some love for brutaldon, and give it a try if you're interested

Friendly reminder: this isn't Twitter.
If you're mad about something? Use a content warning.
If you want to write a long post? Use a content warning.
Don't share screenshots of toots that make you mad, and don't follow people that make you mad.
You've left the swirling fire vortex of rage birdsite created to keep investors and advertisers happy. Live free! Live well 👍

It’s no accident that a ton of prominent leftist accounts on birdsite at risk of being erased are shit talking Mastodon. The need to protect hierarchy, even in its most seemingly arbitrary iterations (like a follower count), is a product of capitalist ideology.
The project of exorcising capital from our collective lives is a constant endeavor. Be vigilant. Be critical. Do the work.

Eh, I'll actually concede that he's not a real leftist. But "chud" is a step too far. "Filthy liberal" is as far as I'll go -- his political blog is generally an inch to the left of Bernie Sanders.

Ah, maybe I was remembering from previously. Any elekk user can give out invites, I think.
