Dr Pen<p>Huh. I'm trying to work with Mastodon and Bluesky RSS in a php twig based plugin (Grav Twigfeeds). Mastodon feeds work fine, first few words parse as title, each post URL links to the post. Bluesky doesn't work *at all*. If I shove thru FetchRss it sort of works but post URLs only link to the account. RSS.app converts much better but is a paid service. </p><p>I think it's to do with no declared XML header, maybe. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/rss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rss</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/xml" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>xml</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/php" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>php</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/twig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>twig</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grav" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>grav</span></a> </p><p>Nb in raw php BS feeds do work.</p>
