Show HN: Subscribe Openly

1 pointsby zerojames5 days ago
Occasionally I run into a site that links directly to an XML file in their RSS&#x2F;Atom links. Browsers don&#x27;t intuitively handle these links; my ideal experience is to go directly into my web reader.<p>Subscribe Openly takes a web feed URL and creates a pretty page with direct links to several web readers (suggestions of more to add are welcome) [1].<p>You can then link to this page instead of directly to an XML link. As a fallback, the XML link will appear on the Subscribe Openly page.<p>I hope web readers become more integrated with browsers again, but for now I&#x27;m sure there are still things we can do to improve the experience of encountering feed links.
