In this tutorial, we'll learn how to use RSS to subscribe to a Mastodon account, so you can get their toots in your RSS client.

To do this, follow the following steps:

1: get the URL of the Mastodon account that you want to subscribe to, e.g.

https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips

2: add .rss to the end of it.

https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips.rss

3: give this new URL to your RSS client.

I only know about this trick thanks to FediTips [https://mstdn.social/@feditips/108357998963885456].

Observation: they've moved from mstdn.social to the social.growyourown.services instance.
