Suddenly, I'm reminded of a service called Yahoo! Pipes from about 15 years ago. If anyone remembers, #Pipes handled #RSS as its primitive, and now I'd like to see something like Pipes handle #ActivityPub as its primitive.

@hongminhee Pipes was great! It would be great to have a new service that does both RSS and ActivityPub.

@basus That's a good idea!

@hongminhee I'm working on something that resembles pipes in the way it plugs RSS sources (and others things, but not AP) into processors and filters and generates some output. It's nowhere near the usability of pipes (it relies on a config file to build the "pipe" itself) but maybe some day.
I use it mainly to track Royal Road web series and convert individual chapters to them to ebooks.
