  • Hugo Awards feed moving

    From Gary McGath@21:1/5 to All on Wed Sep 27 10:53:47 2023
    The Hugo Awards feed on Xwitter is going away, as Xwitter support is and
    always has been nonexistent. It's mentioned in this report:

    https://www.wsfs.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/2023-Report-of-the-Mark-Protection-Committee-PDF.pdf

    The HAMC will continue to cooperate with Worldcon
    committees so that we can update the Hugo Awards
    web site at the first opportunity after the awards
    are announced as well as to use the @TheHugoAwards
    BlueSky feed to publicize the announcements of the
    winners in each category.

    Due to changes at the company formerly known as
    Twitter, we are discontinuing updating the
    @TheHugoAwards Twitter and will redirect people to
    the BlueSky account.

    This is annoying for the large majority of people who don't have and
    can't get Bluesky accounts, but there is a way to get the feed by RSS. I
    was able to subscribe in my RSS reader with this URL:

    https://bluestream.deno.dev/TheHugoAwards.bsky.social?input-handle=TheHugoAwards.bsky.social&submit-button=Generate+feed&exclude-mention=on&mention=exclud

    There was no content in the feed when I added it, so I can't fully
    confirm that it works.
