Re: RSS not working
I think you might be on to something there.

Re: RSS not working
Well, I was indeed missing these lines in my .htaccess in the mod_mime.c module…
AddType application/atom+xml atom
AddType application/rss+xml rss
AddType application/xml xmlAdding them has not changed anything, though.
Maybe that is the problem at the host’s end.
But just curious, even though it is less efficient to use .htaccess for that, wouldn’t it override anything set in the Apache httpd.conf file?

Re: RSS not working
Fugly link works, fwiw:
wion.com/index.php?rss=1&section=notes
…which leads me to wonder if it’s a .htaccess rewrite issue.

Anything look off here? I am not really qualified to see it well.

Yes, that’s one of the intended use cases. The web server sets its configs at a low level, and per-site or per-directory adds or changes directives.

Not for me. I get the RSS XML file downloaded as index.php in Firefox. Might just be my browser settings though.

Re: RSS not working
on my desktop https://wion.com/rss/?section=notes opens up Apple News app. But no love for your feed.
So your RSS seems to trigger a news reader and i don’t get a file download.

Thanks, bic. I’m just aiming for simple, light, privacy-respecting, and quality—whether it’s a throwback, pass forward, or lateral toss.
I see it as a continuum of some very great simple— less is more —website that i have had the pleasure of visiting over the years starting off with textile.com
By this time next year I hope to be hosting and powering it myself from a Blackberry Pi and solar panel. I’m sick of these web host middlemen. I’d like to fold in a small wind turbine later, to help with up-time in the winter season. Part of this means getting the wifman on board with my experiments, though. ;}
let me put in a shameless plug for opalstack.com . you owe it to yourself to give them a test drive. if only for their personal support.
PS managing your own server ? Give that a second thought. Spend more time on your wood working or writing. You will be a much happier camper À bientôt

Wild guess. Would it be ♬ appearing on /notes/dark-mode?

That does work for me, too, in Reeder.app. Which makes me realize having it set for excerpts only is a little lacking. I will just put that URL under the link, if that’s the fix.

Gosh, I hope not. A glyph would be a sad thing to trip up a feed with. But I’ll check.

Glyph wasn’t the problem, but I took it out anyway.

Probably, although at first I don’t see any issue with the contents of the .htaccess as posted.
That fuggly link works fine in NNW and Vienna here. Haven’t checked on the iPhone.
As Firefox does not know about feeds anymore, unless you specifically tell it, I should download that file, I think.

That’s what I get, too, versus the .rss file downloaded using the feed_link tag’s clean URL.
The difference in this case is the crusty URL actually works in the Reeder.app.
Here is a more complete set of .htaccess contents, if anyone sees anything popping out. I’m sure I could refine it a bit, but I’ve not had the time to look into it.

curious: how does one set NNW as default RSS reader, it does not seem to offer any preference for doing that (like any other browser or RSS reader does).
