The Fossies RSS feeds mainly show the name of the new package, the last modification date of the package and the package size as a link to the corresponding Fossies "Contents, Member Browsing & Download" page. In addition, a short description of the package functionality is provided with a link to the package homepage.
| RSS Feed | Min. no. of entries | Linux (folders) | Windows (folders) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| fresh.rss | v | vv | 50 | ALL | ALL | ||
| fresh.linux.rss | v | vv | 30 | ALL | --- | ||
| fresh.windows.rss | v | vv | 30 | --- | ALL | ||
The recommended global RSS feed regarding all packages on Fossies is fresh.rss
with Windows packages marked by a small icon (
).
Alternatively Linux-only users may prefer
fresh.linux.rss
and Windows-only users
fresh.windows.rss.
By clicking on a RSS feed link above you can view the current contents of that feed.
To subscribe the feed follow the instructions of your browser or RSS feed reader.
Mainly for some special applications Fossies offers also the following "scope restricted" feeds:
| RSS Feed | Min. no. of entries | Linux (folders) | Windows (folders) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| fresh.linux_misc.rss | v | vv | 30 | misc | --- | --- | |
| fresh.linux_www.rss | v | vv | 30 | --- | www | --- | |
| fresh.linux_misc_www.rss | v | vv | 30 | misc | www | --- | |
| fresh.windows_misc.rss | v | vv | 30 | --- | misc | ||
| fresh.windows_www.rss | v | vv | 30 | --- | www | ||
There are also two slightly modified feed types ("v" and "vv") that changed only the <title> element in the feed items to be more usable for some applications.
A hint: Firefox's built-in support for web feeds was removed with the release of Firefox version 64 in December 2018. But there exist Firefox add-ons that try to replace the feed reader functionality. Some of them like for e.g. rsspreview offer also the feed preview feature.
A further hint: Using the Fossies Linux RSS feed, the newest Fossies Linux entries are since mid-July 2024 also browsable as Fediverse posts at https://dansu.org/@FossiesFresh (a service provided by Robert Kiraly).
