Is a mastodon bot too much to ask? I don't use reddit or twitter anymore.

    Would love to see them come to the fediverse, even if it was just something as simple as a bot. Their site is all RSSed up though. Can sub to the whole site here: https://aftermath.site/feed

    Or just the Video Games category here: https://aftermath.site/category/video-games/feed

    If you want to follow on Mastodon follow aftermath.site.feed@mastofeeder.com which just bridges rss to the fediverse.

    Note: it will only work for future posts due to the nature of the project

    Yeah, I don't need a bot / feed for any specific service; give me an open standard like RSS any day.

    Try Flym if you're on Android.

    It has a great "add feed" that can search for websites with feeds. So you can simply search for "aftermath" and it will find it — as opposed to knowing the feed already, or going on the site and then looking for the feed there.

    You can also search for other sites or topics and build your own self-curated news sources without any algorithm.

    If you end up not liking Flyn you can export your feeds as an OPML file and move to another app (just make sure that one has an export as well so you don't end up locked in).
