What's the easiest way to automatically post #RSS to a Mastodon bot?
I want to get @openbenches running again. I can't decide between:
1. Using PHP to post new status when a bench is added
2. RSS to Mastodon
3. Setting up some horrifically complicated #ActivityPub service.
Thoughts?
@Edent IFTT can do RSS to Mastadon https://hyperborea.org/journal/2017/12/mastodon-ifttt/
@falken Hmmm... IFTTT is being its usual helpful self. It isn't posting, and it won't tell me why.
Oh well, back to the drawing board!
@Edent You can post to Mastadon with just a HTTP POST so maybe skip the RSS?
@falken not if you want to include images. Or is there a way to do that now?
@Edent I believe you upload media separately then reference in the message, but not had to do this myself
@falken Ta! Looks like it can't do images yet. So I'll try it for now and see how it goes.
