Since my last post about https://piratefeeds.net/ I've added a lot of cool new feeds to the site. I've gotta hand it to reddit-logo, they really came through with the donations. We now have a bunch of high demand feeds: TrueAnon, Trashfuture, Trillbilly, and a dozen more!

We've had issues with Patreon blocking some of the feeds due to detected sharing, but I've since updated the system to hopefully prevent this from happening in the future. Currently, most of the feeds are up and running, some redirect to working feeds on https://jumble.top/, and some are still unavailable until I get a new link donated.

In particular, I'd be very grateful for donations of:

  • Citations Needed
  • This Machine Kills
  • Your Kickstarter Sucks
  • Stavvy's World
  • Hate Watch
  • Rev Left Radio
  • Bungacast
  • Glue Factory
  • The Worst Of All Possible Worlds
  • Boonta Vista
  • Bad Hasbara
  • Blank Check
  • Bad Faith
  • Ten Thousand Posts
  • The Antifada
  • Varn Vlog
  • This Is Revolution
  • Diet Soap
  • We're Not So Different
  • We Might Be Drunk
  • Upstream Podcast
  • Cosmonaut Magazine
  • If Books Could Kill

Also, once again, duplicate feeds are still more than welcome as backups.

The people will be eternally grateful to donors for their service!

NOTE: some users apparently can't resolve the domain. Best guess is some ISPs/DNS servers are blocking the site as part of anti-piracy filters. If that's your case try setting your DNS server to a big one like Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 or Google's 8.8.8.8. Alternatively using a VPN seems to fix it.

A suggestions to make webpage more ergonomic. Two columns. Numerated entries. Time and date of last update. Different colors of newly added podcasts.

Genuinely thank you for the feedback! My first thoughts:

  • Two columns wouldn't work on mobile. I could serve different pages based on device but I'm lazy and that seems like a lot of work right now.
  • Numerated entries are a good idea, but the numbering would change every time I add/remove feeds if I want to stick to alphabetical ordering, which kinda defeats the purpose.
  • For last update do you mean last time the feeds were fetched or last time I modified the index page?
  • New podcast highlighting would be nice indeed, but it would probably have to be manual.

My first general problem is that right now I'm serving a static page with a reverse proxy, so it's difficult to implement backend logic. The second problem is that I

  • am not a frontend dev
  • am bad at frontend dev
  • hate frontend dev.

If someone has suggestions on how I could implement stuff like this without moving to a web app with a backend I'm all ears.
