I was on the hunt for an #RSS to #ActivityPub bridge, and @Barredo's @mastofeed seems to be it!

I just had to sign in with my Mastodon account, and add my RSS feed. Mastofeed can then track new RSS entries and post them on my behalf.

I used Publii to generate the static site + RSS feed, and it worked beautifully. Mastofeed can even upload the post's featured image.

Can't wait to leverage this for my future blog!

A test Mastodon post from my account that was automatically posted by MastoFeed. It reads "Test -> Heading 1: I'm giving Mastofeed a try. Let's see if this works..." followed by a link to the post and image of the post.

@Barredo @mastofeed I didn't get to test this, but I wonder if the featured image's alt text on the blog post can translate to → alt text on Mastodon...

If not, I'd definitely add it as a wishlist item.
