Several RSS-based news communities

![email protected] - BBC. This contains several feeds in one community, tagged with flair to distinguish between them - use PieFed's "membership" setting on the community to filter out the ones you don't want.

![email protected] - Aljazeera only provides a single RSS feed so it's quite the mixed bag.

![email protected] - RNZ, for a perspective from the edge of the world. Again, use flair to filter out.

![email protected] - positive news stories.

![email protected] - Axios, The Atlantic, etc. Has flair.

Posts in these communities are automatically deleted after 28 days, to avoid cluttering up people's servers. Cross-post them into 'real' communities to discuss them.

PieFed recently added RSS-ingestion functionality - this is not done with an external bot-script thing. If you have some good RSS feeds, make an account on crust.piefed.social and go for it.

You can block @[email protected] if these kind of bots annoy you. All the rss feeds on that instance use the same account.

Time to turn my YouTube subscriptions into a private community, I guess

Someone could write a script to make every YouTube channel a community. It would be more handy than the current YouTube alert system that regularly fails to notify people of new videos from channels they asked to be notified about.

So you joke but there is a use there.
