An introduction to feeds
|
|
</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A feed, or "Atom", or "Syndication", or "RSS" (Really Simple
|
|
Syndication or Rich Site Summary) is a mean that allows you
|
|
to receive news articles and other updates from sites
|
|
quickly and conveniently through the installation of a Feed
|
|
Reader (also News Reader or RSS Reader) similar to e-mail.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Through RSS, you can easily receive news updates on your PC,
|
|
mobile and tablet without visiting the site yourself, which
|
|
spares the need for you to manually check the site for new
|
|
content.
|
|
</p>

<h4 id="atom-over-http">

Atom Over HTTP
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Blasta offers Atom feeds for you to subscribe with your News
|
|
Reader.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The subscriptions to Atom Syndication Feeds are centralized
|
|
to the Blasta server.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you do not have a News Reader yet, please refer to our
|
|
<a href="/help/syndication#software">
|
|
selection of News Readers</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4 id="atom-over-xmpp">
|
|
Atom Over XMPP
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Since Blasta is based upon XMPP, Blasta offers
|
|
<a href="/help/about/xmpp/pubsub">PubSub</a> feeds for you
|
|
to subscribe with XMPP clients such as
|
|
<a href="https://leechcraft.org">LeechCraft</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://libervia.org">Libervia</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://movim.eu">Movim</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/SeveFP/Reeder">Reeder</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Generally, there are two types of PubSub subscriptions:
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Peer to peer subscription which allows you to
|
|
subscribe directly to a Blasta node of a contact.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Peer to server subscription that is exclusive to
|
|
Blasta which offers its special nodes, such as
|
|
"popular", "recent", "tag" and "url" variants.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Technically, both PubSub subscriptions are the same, yet the
|
|
"peer to peer" type of subscription is entirely independent
|
|
from Blasta.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4 id="http-xmpp">
|
|
Which is better, HTTP or XMPP?
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It depends on your use case.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you want to receive immediate updates and save bandwidth
|
|
then XMPP would be a good choice for you.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you rather want to be anonymous to the Blasta system or
|
|
to a peer, and you do not care so much for bandwidth and,
|
|
perhaps, you also want to be behind a mixnet or proxy such
|
|
as I2P or Tor, then HTTP would be a good choice for you.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please note, that most of the XMPP desktop clients do not
|
|
yet provide graphical interfaces for PubSub, so you might
|
|
have to resort to the HTTP method, until XMPP desktop
|
|
clients would provide graphical interfaces for PubSub.

Conclusion
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The syndication feeds of Blasta are available in two forms
|
|
(HTTP and XMPP) and can be utilized via any mean you think
|
|
is fit to you, be it a Feed Reader or an XMPP Client. You
|
|
can decide by your own personal preference.
|
