Maker

I’ve shipped quite a bit since the last update. FeedSync can now help you find feeds, gives you more control over which posts reach Discord, and produces better messages for more kinds of content.

Find a feed before adding it

The new RSS Feed Finder is a free way to find and inspect a site’s RSS or Atom feeds. Give it a website URL and it will show the feeds it discovers, along with a preview of their most recent posts.

It also understands a few places where the feed URL is not always obvious: YouTube channels, subreddits, Bluesky profiles, and Nitter profiles.

Preview how links will look

I’ve also added a free Open Graph tester. It reads a page’s Open Graph, Twitter Card, and oEmbed metadata, then builds a Discord-style preview—including the image—so you can spot missing or surprising metadata before sharing a link.

Choose which posts get through

Feeds now support entry filters. You can include or exclude posts by matching against their title or description, using “contains”, “starts with”, or “ends with” rules.

Feed entry filters for matching titles and descriptions

This is useful for noisy feeds where you only care about one topic, or where there are recurring posts you never want sent to your server.

Better Discord delivery

Discord forum and media channels are now supported. FeedSync creates a new forum post for each feed entry and uses the feed title when opening the thread, so these channels stay tidy and easy to scan.

Nitter feeds now get their own richer Discord rendering too. Posts use the account name as the embed title, turn the body into compact Markdown, and show an attached image when one is available. FeedSync can recognise feeds from public and self-hosted Nitter instances, rather than relying on one hard-coded domain.

A more dependable day-to-day experience

There have been plenty of smaller improvements behind the scenes as well:

  • Feed discovery now handles gzip-compressed responses and feeds without GUIDs.
  • Duplicate feed entries and subscription events are handled idempotently.
  • Connections have a clearer confirmation step before deletion.
  • Billing has moved to Stripe, with a self-service portal for managing your subscription.
  • The dashboard and navigation have had another round of mobile polish.

That’s all for this round-up. If there is a feed FeedSync still struggles to find or format, come and tell me in the Discord community.
