One of my favorite new NewsBlur features for following sites with no RSS feeds:

- paste in a URL for a site that has no RSS feed
- NewsBlur reads the page, finds what looks like story titles
- You're presented with a few story titles pulled out of the page
- 90% of the time users just pick the first suggestion

Zero configuration, NewsBlur just figures it out, and bam, you're following a site with no RSS feed in your RSS news reader.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/newsblur/statuses/116246244789259539 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
