Every source in the Signal 500 as standard OPML, free to import into any RSS reader. People are starting to do what I've been asking them to do. Publishing dynamic OPML lists, that smart apps can subscribe to. Once this catches on, it'll be a juggernaut, imho.

I fully agree about bringing atproto into bsky. There's longform/standard.site content, but also repos, photos, events, games, puzzmos, scrobbles, etc popping up on the protocol. Do you think the main feed is the best place to surface all that?
