EnglishWhat Is feedle and What Can You Do With It?
Updated
feedle is a search engine for blogs and podcasts where every search you run becomes an RSS feed. You use it when you want to discover posts or episodes on a topic and then keep following new matches automatically, instead of checking a site by hand. It searches across millions of blog posts and podcast episodes, and it is aimed at finding creators you may not already know about.
How feedle works
The core idea is simple: a search is not a one-time result page, it is a subscription.
- You enter a search for a topic, name, or phrase.
- feedle returns matching blog posts and podcast episodes from its index.
- That same search is available as an RSS feed.
- You subscribe to the feed in your RSS reader.
- When a new result matches your criteria, it appears in your reader.
So the input is your search terms, the action is subscribing to the generated feed, and the expected result is ongoing updates delivered to wherever you read feeds.
What you can do with it
- Discover new creators. Results are drawn from a broad index, so you can surface blogs and podcasts outside your usual reading list.
- Track a topic over time. Because each search is a feed, you can follow a subject rather than a single site.
- Follow podcasts and blogs together. Both content types are covered in the same search.
- Consolidate interests into one reader. Multiple searches become multiple feeds, all managed in your RSS app.
Who it fits
| You want to… | feedle fits if… |
|---|---|
| Follow a niche topic across many sites | You already use an RSS reader |
| Find unfamiliar blogs and podcasts | You are open to browsing search results |
| Get updates without email newsletters | You prefer feeds over inbox subscriptions |
| Search once and move on | A standard search engine may be enough |
Practical notes
- You need an RSS reader to get the ongoing benefit; without one, feedle works as a one-off search.
- There is a "Feeling lucky?" option that opens a random search page if you would rather explore than query.
- Creators can submit their blog or podcast, and there is an FAQ plus a Top Stories section on the site.
- The site is described as brand new and is promoting itself through Mastodon.
If your goal is to keep up with a topic or find new voices in blogs and podcasts, feedle turns that goal into a feed you can subscribe to. If you only need a single answer, a conventional search will do.
