Hi! The Slashdot feed shows the top 5 user comments below the text (trapped in a hard to scroll iframe of sorts). Is there a way to disable that? (that is, not showing that iframe). Thank you!
You’ll have to rewrite the feed. Since you’re reading /. I assume you might have the chops to be able to do that. But it’ll take a script that takes the original feed in and cuts it up.
Right, it makes sense (and I appreciate the faith and quick answer). Just wanted to check if there was an option not to render such elements before getting my hands dirty. Thanks!
Done. For future reference, sed 's/<iframe.*iframe>//g'
did the trick. Now I can use the curating powers of the crowds without losing faith in humanity by avoiding the comments.
I recently found https://pipes.digital, a replacement for the old Yahoo! Pipes that allowed me to build a version of that RSS without the toxic comments. Here it is if anyone wants to subscribe: https://www.pipes.digital/feed/AO0g7ANK
