RSS feed that is only third-parties

[mbonig]

Description

The current RSS feeds lists all packages picked up by the hub. However, during every release of the CDK there is a flood of messages then for all the individual packages and other 1st party libraries like cdktf and others.

It'd be really nice to have an RSS feed that was only for third-party libraries.

Use Case

I like monitoring for 3rd party constructs to see what's being published by the community. I have, in the past, highlighted some of these and would like to do that again in the future. Currently the feed is filled with a ton of noise from all the first-party libraries that makes this harder to do.

@mbonig , thanks for the feature request. Would it be possible for you to write a filter that takes the current feed and removes non-3rd party constructs? A decent proxy for "3rd" party could either be author or known 1st party authors in the link?

I could give it a try. Are you asking me to submit a PR?

@mbonig. I don't think any code changes would be necessary. What I'm suggesting is using a feed filter on your end that would take in the constructs.dev feed as input, filter out all items that are 1st party, and return to you a new feed. I did a quick test of this using https://aws.amazon.com as an exclude keyword and it did a decent job.

Oh. My feed reader (feedly) doesn't have that option...
