<p>Discovering this also made me find out that Dave Winer is also on the Fediverse, and is <a href="https://w3c.social/@davew@mastodon.social/110559652591295897" target="_blank">just as bitter as he is rumored to be</a>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[
<p>From the author of <a href="https://envs.net/~lucidiot/rsrsss/feed.xml#status.cafe" target="_blank">status.cafe</a> and <a href="https://envs.net/~lucidiot/rsrsss/feed.xml#forum.status.cafe" target="_blank">vpub</a>, <a href="https://piclog.blue" target="_blank">piclog.blue</a> is a new service to share pics, embed them into a website, and get RSS feeds from them. Interestingly, unlike all of m15o's other projects up until now, this project provides RSS and not Atom feeds.</p>
<p>Probably the most exotic part of this image sharing service is that every image is highly compressed: no more than 400×400 pixels in size, and saved as JPEG with a quality of 5%. This probably makes hosting this service a lot easier in terms of bandwidth and storage space, and makes the images look blurry or less detailed. Most piclog users are status.cafe users, so it's interesting to see the photographic equivalent of the things I see fellow status.cafe users post regularly.</p>
<p>While you can get a feed of <a href="https://piclog.blue/feed.php" target="_blank">every photo from everyone</a>, you can also get feeds for each user, with <code>https://piclog.blue/user-feed.php?id=</code> followed by the integer ID of the relevant user. You can get this ID by opening their profile, since the same ID will be in the profile URL. Here's <a href="https://piclog.blue/user-feed.php?id=2" target="_blank">m15o's feed</a> for example.</p>
<p>As of posting this, the feeds unfortunately do not use <a href="https://www.rssboard.org/media-rss" target="_blank">Media RSS</a> or embed the image into the description as an <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> tag, so you will have to open each item in your browser to view the image with most feedreaders.</p>
