I'm a new NixOS user and I would like to follow NixOS announcements via RSS.

To find the RSS feed for https://nixos.org/blog/announcements I had to read the page source (and ask on matrix), which is awkward.

I suggest adding explicit mention of the RSS feed to the content of that blog page. I expect to find such a thing by spotting the RSS feed icon, or by searching for "feed" in the content.

Hi guys! Recently I've tried to follow NixOS'es news feed, but faced
some issues:

1. There was no publicly available link to the feed (found it [in the
issues](#1245)). Also
mentioned [in this
issue](#1195)
2. When I imported feed url to my reader, it was flooded by ~200 entries
from beginning of times (year 2004) unlike other feeds usually having
5-10 entries.

And since we're all foss-guys, I've decided to fix issues by myself:)

While fixing length of the rss-feed, I've discovered that [trying to
apply](https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/blob/main/src/pages/blog/%5Bid%5D-rss.xml.js#L20)
`filter` to `const` variable isn't a way to get some proper results.

And after making rss-feeds for different categories really differ, I've
added three new links on the Blog page under category blocks.
