will you ever consider adding an rss feed to bdth?

this has been a pretty common request! and i'd love to get that working, right now the thing stopping me is time spent on implementation and testing. right now, the idea is to have it be a centralized main feed - bdth updates, eternal september updates, and news posts, with each update and news post getting its own entry, but bdth doesn't have a singular "updates" feed - it's all individual pages, and putting each new page into an rss feed one by one would quickly make it unusable when i'm putting up double-digits pages at a time.

there's some more implementation stuff that doesn't especially matter in a formspring question, but the tl;dr is your classic conundrum: the way to get something usable out quickly would result in a bad feed that nobody would want to use, the way to get it done the best requires some backend work that would take time to do.
