@JohnPhilpin thank you, yes, doing it this way was an evolution of already exposing my opml list of rss subscriptions in machine and human readable form simultaneously, turning that OPML list into my blogroll as well.
@JohnPhilpin yes, blogged it at the time www.zylstra.org/blog/2019... On my blog you'll see the link to the blogroll in the right sidebar.
@ton @JohnPhilpin I found that my web hosting needs to have the extension of the file be .xml instead of .opml to be able to render it. I am investigating how to update the MIME types on my web host.
@AndySylvester literally just change the extension? Nothing else?
@JohnPhilpin yes, that was all that was needed, looking into the MIME type thing, just posted about it.
