Slack's RSS feed reader does not render https://clojure.org/feed.xml properly. Some HTML tags are truncated. I think it would be a good idea to make sure the feed renders well in more places.

Reproduce

I have subscribed to the feed in https://clojurians.slack.com/archives/C076654T2LD/p1717409306089639 by seding this message in a Slack channel. Need to wait for the next blog post.

/feed add https://clojure.org/feed.xml
/feed add https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/feed/

Solution

Here are some other RSS feeds that render well in Slack:

• https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/feed/
• https://blog.rust-lang.org/feed.xml

It might be worth experimenting with JBake templates (which are excluded via .gitignore). At the moment, the full blog body seems to be included in the <description> tag, but the feeds that render ok in Slack keep the description short and wrap the blog content inside a <content:encoded> instead:

The content:encoded element can be used in conjunction with the description element to provide an item's full content along with a shorter summary. Under this approach, the complete text of the item is presented in content:encoded and the summary in description.
