Ask HN: Following’ Other HN Users?
There's this page which offers a "Users" posts and comments RSS feed.
Is that the kind of thing?

Those making $500/month on side projects in 2023 – Show and tell
I did a Show HN 4 months ago[1].
The reason I started KTool was to spend less time on computer screens, and more on e-ink Kindle. I was afraid of going blind.
After 4 months improving KTool, it now becomes a tool to help you combat doom-scrolling. Instead of mindlessly scrolling the web, I deliberately send interesting articles to my Kindle.
Recently, I added newsletter & RSS support, it's 100% automated now.
My favorite source of content is Hacker News RSS[2], Stratechery[3], Indie Hacker Newsletters[4] and a few other Substack newsletters.
I can enjoy reading HN latest stories or my fav authors' latest pieces on my Kindle without spending hours browsing on my computer.
I just reached $620 MRR today (Jan 23)

Is there a way to follow people on Hacker News?
Not on the website, but it's fairly easy to use the (unofficial) RSS API to get a feed of someone's posts: https://hnrss.github.io/
Or if you prefer RSS : https://hnrss.github.io/#reply-feeds

Ask HN: What Happened to Hacker News RSS
Algolia's HN Search API stopped indexing new content around 2022-11-28T04:59:46.000Z. Unfortunately, not much hnrss can do until the API starts working again.

Ask HN: What services/apps are you self-hosting?
I don't think there is any website I care about checking regularly that does not have an rss/atom feed. All wordpress (and pretty much every other blog engine) sites do, subreddits do, https://hnrss.github.io/ for hacker news...
That said, I personally only use rss for slow-updating sites (pretty much just for personal weblogs and the news/announcements for some projects).

Ask HN: If you were to build an alternative Twitter
>RSS - People put out RSS feeds. People subscribe to RSS feeds.
RSS might replace Twitter for your particular use case. However, it doesn't replace Twitter in general case for the public because RSS is one-directional.
The phenomenon of the "Twittersphere" includes bi-directional activity like replies and retweets.
As an analogy, this Hacker News site has users taking part in reading and writing activities. A few users like to spread the word that they consume HN via RSS just fine (e.g. maybe get feeds from https://hnrss.github.io/).
But users (who are not just pure lurkers) can't use RSS to upvote/downvote comments or post their own replies. Therefore, RSS can't replace HN's website for general usage.
Likewise, RSS can be a way of consuming NYTimes newspaper, but RSS can't replace the NYTimes itself.
RSS is an undeniable convenience for readers but its limited scope does not provide viral mechanics and feedback loops for writers publishers.
RSS works at the abstraction level of "protocol for data download". Sites like Twitter and HN, etc work at abstraction level of "virtual marketplace of ideas" -- and that function is out of scope for RSS.

Ask HN: What's Going on with the HN Algorithm?
Yes, another good reason to use something like https://github.com/hnrss/hnrss instead of depending on a (very transitory) front page.

Ask HN: Do You Use RSS?
A while ago I tried finding a nice RSS reader that would be detached from the browser, but didn't find too many nice options out there.
But as it turns out, Thunderbird actually has a built in feed reader, which now nicely aggregates both my e-mails, spam e-mails and both news that I might care about as well as the ones I don't. So the experience is very similar to dealing with e-mails - occasional items that I care about amongst others that I don't, even if some of the others are useful as well, and having all of that in the same application makes a lot of sense!
Here's an example: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2022/05/thunderbird-rss-feeds-g...
I even added an RSS feed to my own blog which can now tell anyone who cares about that stuff about new articles.
In addition, I'm subscribed to some feeds that pull data from HN so I don't miss like 90% of my comment responses, as well as a "Jobs" feed for the "Who's Hiring?" posts.
I currently use this for HN: https://hnrss.github.io/
It feels like RSS is a nice solution for releases of articles and such, I wonder why we don't see too much of it anymore nowadays, though someone would probably claim that it has something to do with ads.
