In-reply-to » Why, oh why, does YouTube include upcoming videos in RSS feeds? “This video premiers in 21 hours.” Oohhhhhhkay. I will long have forgotten about it by then, thank you very much.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org As far as I know, they’re still visible in the Web UI. Although, in the mobile app and youtube.com, I believe it tells you that the video isn’t available without having to click on it. They don’t tell you that in the RSS feed, and I agree; it gets annoying.

If we had a custom feed generator that hooks directly into the YouTube API, I’ll bet we could find that information and put “[Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled]” in the title for premieres and remove it when the video is available.

In-reply-to » Atom vs. RSS: https://mckinley.cc/blog/20221109.html

@mckinley@twtxt.net Thank you! I didn’t even know about signing and encrypting XML documents. Right, RSS is a little bit messy.

Unfortunately, the autodiscovery document in one of your linked resources does not exist anymore. What annoys me in Atom is the distinction between <id> and <link>. I always want my URL also to be my ID, so I have to duplicate that – unnecessarily in my opinion.

Also, never found a good explanation why I should add <link rel="self" … /> to my feeds. I just do, but I don’t understand why. The W3C Feed Validation Service says:

[…] This value is important in a number of subscription scenarios where often times the feed aggregator only has access to the content of the feed and not the location from which the feed was fetched.

This just sounds like a very questionable bandaid to bad software architecture. Why would the feed parser need access to the feed URL at this stage? And if so, why not just pass down the input source? Just doesn’t make sense to me.

Also, I just noticed that I reference the http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/ namespace, but don’t use it in most of my feeds. Gotta fix that. Must have copied that from my yfav feed without paying attention what I’m doing.

Your article made me reread the Atom spec and I found out, that I can omit the <author> in the <entry> when I specify a global <author> at <feed> level. Awesome! Will do that as well and thus reduce the feed size.
