To make sure you are seeing all the interesting post on a particular hashtag on Mastodon, you can easily follow them when logged into Mastodon. But wouldn't it be cool to have these posts delivered straight to your RSS reader? The good news is, its easy. You just need the right URL. To do that you need: the server address of your Mastodon instance and the hashtag you want to follow. Then you form it like this:
https://[your_mastodon_server]/tags/[yourhashtag].rss
For example, if you are on mastodon.social and you want to follow the hashtag #sandiego you would use: https://mastodon.social/tags/sandiego.rss
Click the above link and you'll see the RSS!
Now just copy that link into your favorite RSS reader and you'll never miss a post on your favorite topics.
