I’ve just added a score parameter to the community RSS feeds so you can get a RSS feed of posts at or above that score. e.g. https://piefed.social/community/fediverse/feed?score=20

If there is interest then we can add more filters, for flair/tag, etc. But from the server logs it doesn't seem like many people use RSS.

I feel like sometimes just usage data does not capture what power users do which is important. they might be the one who contribute stuff like high quality content, more money and code to the project.

Maybe there should be something like an invite based group for the people who contribute the best content for piefed or just people who contribute to the patreon (i think this can be set up automatically).

i myself use RSS but not for feeds of fediverse software . i did contribute some feedback to lemmy which ended up being accepted (the ability to block an instance, a few RES features which should appear on lemmy 1.0).

Nice feature. Out of curiosity, by "score" do you mean upvotes or the net ratio of upvotes and downvotes?

I follow Lemmy RSS feeds from openrss because it localizes all of the feed links to my own instance regardless of the instance the RSS feed content is on. Wish Lemmy's feeds this by default.

You can read more about them at this link: https://openrss.org/feeds/lemmy

I would never have thought of this feature but it's so simple and useful!

This is brilliant and a big reason why subscribing to subreddits via rss sucks

Nice option!

I don't think many people use RSS as is, but it is surprisingly common for someone to run a bot that takes an RSS feed and post it in a chat channel or so. This obviously hides the actual usage numbers a bit.
