Hi

I noticed that in Reddit's r/perl brian_d_foy and others keep posting just one liner links as a kind of newsfeed.

I was thinking of mirroring this here in News because then we could easily discuss them here.

I already made sure Brian is fine with this. He also suggested to me to use the RSS as source for simplification.

This would significantly increase the number of posts in Perl News so I wanted to ask beforehand. Another alternative target could be Meditations

For clarification: These are curated links, I'm not talking about total automation.

I'd probably use a nodelet hack to check the RSS and prepare the post here to be mirrored

Examples from Reddit
