fx is a small content management system (cms) written in Rust with Axum. I wrote it because I love having an "online notebook" where I can write down little ideas that I come across. X (formerly Twitter) and similar sites used to be this, but nowadays more and more login walls are being put up. And then I thought: how hard is it to make my own X cms? So basically just have my own site where I can go to with my phone and then type something and publish it with one click. That's what fx (GitHub) is.
Since the last time I posted here in r/rust, the site now also contains a "Blogroll". With this feature, you can add RSS feeds from other people and have them show up at /blogroll. For example, I'm following a few people at https://huijzer.xyz/blogroll. The nice thing about this is that you can follow individual people making it all highly distributed. I'm still thinking/working on other Federation ideas such as Mastodon integration, but I haven't figured that out yet. If anyone knows how I can make posts from a fx site show up at Mastodon, I'll be happy to hear.
