in thread Link reposting in "Perl News"?

I like the way curated quality links are posted one by one and are open to comments.

A pure RSS feed or even feed aggregators of everything happening in the Perl universe has too much "noise" to be digested.

It's also an incentive for other to regularly come back to PM if they find more quality posts here.

And it helps interconnecting the different parts of the community.

Yes we already have various "aggregation" nodelets here, but honestly I stopped reading them.

For instance I think that conference talks don't have the audience they deserve.

Normally I'm overwhelmed when I encounter them all in one place at Youtube and the comments there are not very meaningful.

TPRC2025 is now publishing them one per day, which is IMHO a clever move. And Brian is forwarding them to Reddit.

See https://www.reddit.com/user/briandfoy/submitted/

Like that, we could have meaningful discussions about those talks.

What I'm not sure of is ...

I think Hippo nailed it by suggesting to just try it for a little while and to see where it leads to.

I thought of doing it semi-automatically by myself, by writing a nodelet-hack which scans the RSS and informs me about a new post from Brian and fills the post-form. Like that I only need to check and click.

But in a try-out phase, I'd rather do it manually.
