XML RSS Feed
Maybe some feed readers do not support the JSON feed I built? Will have to wait for replies (https://mobile.twitter.com/mxstbr/status/1087292997480390656), but it might be worth building a XML version either way.
Would have to adjust the data/generate-json-feed.js script to also generate a XML script.
Noticed as well that I'm not sure feed readers can parse the datePublished at on the JSON feed as it's currently shorthand instead of RFC3339.
Might be able to replace the date in the JSON with date.toISOString()
I think I can look into this. Also, I'm curious why doesn't the current JSON Feed contain full text? Is it intentional?

That would be amazing!! :100:
Yes, I did not manage to convert the React components I have to plain text. Open to ideas on that front too!
I was just about to open an issue for this, you guys are great! :rocket:
Here's how to check whether the generated feed is valid: https://validator.w3.org/feed/ (currently it isn't)
(side note, I'm reading feeds on my email client - Thunderbird - which apparently doesn't yet support JSON)
