> That said, just the other day I was thinking, is the reverse possible. I have a web site/blog. Use RSS and then the RSS updates are posted to a handle on Bluesky. I would assume that's a lot more useful?

This is trivial, I'm currently doing this for https://bsky.app/profile/aemet-bot.bsky.social which reads a bunch of RSS feeds from AEMET (Spain's national weather service basically) and posts warnings to the feed if there is any warning above Yellow.

The code for managing this is about ~200 lines of Rust code.

Do you have that code posted somewhere by chance? I would be interested in browsing through it!

Not right now, no. It's fairly simple (login to Bluesky, read RSS, save item IDs to a text file, post if there are any new feed items, close program then systemd timers run this every N minutes) + pretty specific to AEMET and their formats.

If there is interest I guess I could spend some hours to make it a bit more generic and publish the source.
