# Follow web feeds and Hacker News

Add RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, h-feed, and filtered Hacker News sources to Keep.

Web feed sync is included with Personal. Add a feed to save new posts as Markdown. Keep can discover a feed from many site home pages. For an overview with an example feed, see [RSS reader](https://keep.md/features/rss-reader).

## Supported web feed formats

Keep supports:

-   RSS 2.0
-   Atom
-   JSON Feed
-   h-feed Microformats

Duplicate entries are skipped.

## Add a web feed

1.  Open **Settings**.
2.  Open **Sources**.
3.  Select **Add source**.
4.  Select **Website or RSS**.
5.  Enter the website or feed URL.
6.  Choose a backfill option.
7.  Set any tags, rules, summaries, content, or rollup options.
8.  Select **Add source**.

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.

## 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](https://keep.md/docs/subscriptions) for backfill, manual sync, pause, resume, and removal.
