- Updated About section and shift its focus to just our Mission for now (we'll be writing more in-depth RSS advocacy content on some blog articles we've got coming)
- Added more Mastodon feeds that have been requested. We aren't naming what specific instances they are, because doing so makes them easier for bad actors to target. You'll need to go to the home page and search for the instance to see if one you've requested is supported. Please remember that we only provide working feeds for instances with public content. Private timelines can't and won't be supported.
