Hi! I am not sure if this is the right place for feature requests for the Blog, but I did not find any other place where this would have been applicable — if I am wrong here I am sorry!

Regarding the feature request: It would be great to have a RSS feed for the blog to keep up with updates around the project. Would that be possible to implement?

Bump!

An RSS feed should be easy to implement and would make it a lot easier to keep up with the Ollama updates. Could you please consider this?

IMO not worth the time.
Better dedicate time to competitive features.
We are in a race people!!

WDYM? At that point they might as well stop making blog posts, because it takes time to write a post.

Ollama is already cemented as one of the best options for local AI inference, and anyway, open source development isn't about racing, it's about doing the job right.

For GitHub projects you can point your RSS reader to the releases page: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases

But having one on a blog is always a good idea.

I think having an RSS feed for the blog is quite standard and I believe it can increase number of people following it. At the same time, this is usually super easy to achieve if they are using some kind of CMS.

@gavrilov Nice workaround but unfortunately the XML files are empty for me. :(
Also having a separate service feels overkill in this case.

Implementing an RSS feed should be trivial in most cases. @BruceMacD Are the blog sources anywhere to be found? I might give this a try myself.

While it's not officially available, I created one through RSS-Bridge here.

If you host your own RSS-bridge, the relevant XPaths are:

  • Item selector: //div[@class='flex flex-col']/a
  • Item title selector: .//h2
  • Item description selector: .//p/text()
  • Item URL selector: .//@href
  • Item date selector: .//h3

I would also benefit for all announcements from the blog in a RSS feed.

Both links above doesn't seems to work anymore... Any idea?

It's more than a little weird to have a blog with no rss feed.

You can use this as well: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Olshansk/rss-feeds/refs/heads/main/feeds/feed_ollama.xml

I created and open-sourced github.com/Olshansk/rss-feeds to check on an hourly basis!

Hello everyone, I’m closing this issue now. The RSS feed feature was merged and deployed this morning, and a basic RSS feed is now available for the /blog section. Feel free to reopen the issue if you run into any problems.

Thanks for shipping! One question: Is there a reason for the RSS feed items to be a summary/snippet of the content, as opposed to the full content of each article?

@hoyyeva Thank you very much! This is great news. :)

I would also be interested in @leandrofavarin question:

Having the whole article shipped via RSS would be perfect.
