I loved Yahoo Pipes. I had so many pipes set up to filter RSS feeds and Podcasts down to just the types of content I cared about. Insanely useful, I miss it so much.

A big example, I listen to a podcast where they have standard episodes and episodes where they play D&D and I just don’t care about the D&D ones so it was really nice to be able to filter them out.



Fun, that was also my primary use case for pipes. That and making title-only rss into full text rss


I use Handy Reading on f-droid/android and hide various things from feeds based on their title/category. Wonder if it could pass on a filtered feed to a podcast app somehow.
