what does sound/mute button do?

[crazycells]

but since email subscriptions won the battle over RSS many years ago, you provide a more modern solution

poor RSS…

[phenomlab]

@crazycells It’s a plugin, yes - see

https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-category-notifications#readme

It’s not the same thing as the RSS button - this will only show new topics if you are in fact subscribed to that specific feed with an RSS reader that auto updates.

[crazycells]

@phenomlab maybe you can use the “newsletter” icon?

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Yes, or the bell icon…

[phenomlab]

@crazycells well, RSS still has it’s uses. As an example, I have a script that can pull RSS feeds from anywhere and make NodeBB posts out of them

of course I am still using RSS personally with Thunderbird to follow several news websites and government agencies… I still find it very useful. But I was talking more about the general public

But I guess recently they started to call “podcasts subscriptions” as “RSS audio subscriptions”… I remember seeing this expression somewhere

[phenomlab]

@crazycells yes, I’ve seen this widely used in podcasts also. RSS might be old, but it’s still extremely useful.

@crazycells I’ve changed this in DEV so it looks like the below

Subscribed

Unsubscribed

I think this is much clearer now.

I would upvote this, but apparently I cannot upvote you more than 6 times a day

[phenomlab]

@crazycells I can soon change that

I would upvote this too

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Try it ?

nope, does not work…

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Yeah, looking at the plugin itself, that’s a hard coded limit

I’ll probably remove that… eventually…
