Keep tries to discover the feed when you enter a website home page. You can also enter a direct feed URL.
The browser extension shows a feed action when it discovers a feed on the current page.
Find a feed URL
Common paths include /feed, /rss, /atom.xml, /feed.json, and
/index.xml.
Substack publications usually provide /feed. Medium feeds often use
medium.com/feed/ before the profile or publication path.
For X profiles, the Twitter RSS feed generator builds a feed URL for posts, articles, or both. Before you import a feed list, the OPML viewer and validator checks that the file parses correctly.
Add a Hacker News source
Select Hacker News when you want a filtered HN feed. You can start from a standard feed or build a search.
Available filters include:
- feed type
- words or phrases
- author
- minimum points
- minimum comments
- number of results
- story link or comments link
Enter more than one search term to match any of them. Use the preview URL to check the feed before you save it.
Choose the Show HN feed for a Show HN source. Add minimum points or comments when you want only active stories.
Choose what gets saved
Every feed entry becomes a saved item. Personal can fetch the full page, create a summary, and add automatic tags.
Some feeds include the complete article. Others include only a summary. Turn on full-content extraction when Keep should fetch the full article.
Reddit saved feeds only include a small link card. Turn on full-content extraction to fetch the Reddit post and its available comments instead of storing that card as the article body.
Manage a busy feed
Turn on Group in Saved to group recent entries from one source. Add default tags or smart tag rules when you need stable labels.
See Subscriptions for backfill, manual sync, pause, resume, and removal.
