Feature Request: RSS feed support for daily digest pages

[rohitgulyaniofficial]

Hi,

First of all, thank you for building and maintaining Hacker News Digest — I wish I had found out about this sooner!

I mostly have been consuming it via RSS feed which is great. It appears that there is no RSS feed available specifically for daily pages though.

I'm not sure if it's possible or viable to do so, but a daily RSS feed can work like a newsletter in your RSS Reader that you can quickly skim through at mornings or nights and go in detail if interested in a particular article.

If this is something you’re open to, It'd be great to have this option available.

Thanks again for the great work.

I suppose most RSS readers save all news they have fetched, so you can naturally view past news, making it unnecessary to provide a separate daily feed?

Fair point. What I’m thinking with a daily feed is slightly different: treating each daily digest as a single, self-contained unit rather than a stream of individual articles.

That can help reduce noise a bit. For example, if you’re short on time you can just skim the top summaries. And if you don’t check in for a week, you end up with 7 unread items instead of a long stream that you’ll probably just mark as read anyway.
