Can I suggest removing recently extracted or having a way to hide whatever you extract from the home page?
Good suggestion. I see people already started getting naught ideas. Change is being deployed now.

This is great! I've had htmlx on my "things to look into" list for a few weeks now and funny enough I use Go on the backend of rssfeedsasap as well. :)
Thanks! I'm trying to make xtemplate into a 'Rapid Application Development' RAD tool, as one of the commenters pointed out. lmk if you feel like trying it out; @infogulch everywhere

#23I'm old enough to remember when browsers would highlight in the url bar that a site had an RSS feed. Well, I'm old enough to remember upgrading from Mosaic to Netscape, so I'm v old.
Cool little project.

#24Do you use alternate meta tag to detect the rss feed?
It uses several techniques one of which is also meta tags.
Strange. I tried it with my blog and it said there was no feed https://kevincox.ca. I definitely have a alternate link tag set up.

Maybe a hand curated list of feeds that could be extracted would be better? :)

#26If you want to create new RSS feeds from almost anything, my rssparser.lisp is still there: https://code.rosaelefanten.org/rssparser.lisp
Is there a docker image for this?

#27Shameless plug on something similar: https://feedreader.xyz
Comes as a bookmarklet and it will not only find a page's feed, it will also display it nicely directly.
Demo on Verge's feed: https://feedreader.xyz/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theverge.com%2... (you just visit the site, hit the bookmarklet & there you go)
This was primarily built after realizing that the official Google RSS plugin for Chrome was never gonna be updated and was "stuck" to that annoying layout while displaying a page's feed.

Ironically, chrome(ihm) is starting to show that again.
An RSS icon next to the URL if an RSS feed is provided.

What exactly would be the point of shoving a script that is nothing more than a simple cronjob and that could theoretically just be compiled as a static binary into a Docker container?

Had you replied in a respectful manner, you would have gotten a reply from me with what I think are legitimate reasons for having this script in a docker image.
