Although not explicitly part of the indieweb protocols, RSS and Atom feeds are important too.

h-feed is recommended for the IndieWeb, making your HTML your feed, and RSS/Atom for the rest of the planet.

I don't know about you, but I don't know of any native (non website/javascript) software that supports h-feeds. IndiePass was only ever for smartphones and it's fully dead. h-feed is more of a html integrated mark-up for posts than any form of actual separate feed file. This is claimed to be a positive aspect of h-feeds, not being a separate file... but it really isn't. I keep track of all the other indieweb sites I care about via normal rss/atom feeds. h-feeds were an aspiration that did not actually come about. The rest of the indieweb protocols rock though.

I looked around andros.dev and found no (real) feeds so I'll probably just forget the site in a week. If it had had a feed I'd have added it to my desktop native readers.

Well, don't shoot the messenger. I'm just letting you know what they recommend :D

By the way, andros.dev has an RSS feed.
