This week in #FDroid (TWIF):
- Fennec (our Firefox fork) was updated to version 134. Mull however won't get this update, so it's time to switch browsers
- Katawa Shoujo: Re-Engineered was re-engineered
- RetroArch is now easier to onboard
- Syncthing was finally archived, but Syncthing-Fork got an update
- WG Tunnel is now reproducible, which unfortunately means a re-installation on your side
- Some more news about Wikipedia, Element and NClientV2

Just FYI, In the linked post, your RSS link is not an RSS link. I was able to find it with getrssfeed.com, but still.
Also, I've tried Element X. Best thing I can say about it is I can find it in my app drawer a lot easier than fluffy/fuzzy/whatever it's called chat. My biggest hang up is (to use the Discord term as I forget what Matrix uses,) there only being rooms, and no servers makes it difficult to figure out what rooms belong to what groups. Otherwise, it's nice enough.
@Tourma Apps that we tested like Capy, Feeder or Readrops will pick the feed just fine. We will look at improving it.

I mean like, this is the link I get when I click the "RSS Feed" on, "Please subscribe to the RSS feed in your favorite RSS application to be updated of new TWIFs when they come up."

It is interesting that GetRSS didn't find the link, (It scans sites and gives the link if there is one, even if it's hidden. Like on news sites,) where I found it at the bottom of the .../news/ page.
Once I found it, Thunderbird accessed it fine.
