✨ Feature parity: RSS feeds

[thunder-coding]

How does this feature work on Reddit?

Reddit has RSS feeds for subreddits as well as users in format:
https://reddit.com/r/reddit/.rss
https://reddit.com/user/spez/.rss

Describe how this could be implemented into Redlib

Proxy and replace reddit with respective redlib instance URL

Describe alternatives you've considered

I am not aware of any alternatives

Additional context / screenshot

Irrelevant

Came searching for this feature. Would be useful. I use freshrss for reddit posts.

Would also be nice to clean up formatting (add in full post, proxy images, maybe even add comment support)...

I also would love this. rss-bridge also currently has issues with accessing reddit, so it would be lovely to use redlib instead.

This would likely require code to actually generate the RSS feed from the sub feed, instead of simply proxying the RSS feed (due to fingerprinting worries - mobile client does no fetching of the RSS feed). Happy to work on this since it seems highly requested. Will do some research into RSS feed mechanics in the coming week

Also this should likely be config-gated - I don't know if most users would want it on by default and it may cause a lot of bot traffic

@sigaloid in case it helps your thought process on mapping Reddit fields to a useable RSS feed, I thought I’d link this project that did just that (back before the rules changed) https://github.com/trashhalo/reddit-rss
