Pick one of the 10+ Hacker News feeds and see how it destroys your timeline. 🤣

The challenge with RSS driven feeds is that Nostr lacks algorithms to moderate the influx of content.

I personally get a lot of value out of the Hacker News RSS but if I leave it on, I completely disengage from the rest of Nostr.

Less prolific rss feeds might be ok. But it comes down to the goal of the client / app. Are you creating a content consumption app or a social networking app?

RSS feeds can help the 9% of the traditional social media group that curates content for others so they don’t have to go externally to find content to share. But I’m not sure what they do for everyone else.
