RSS feed title customization for specific tags?

I use the below code for putting a unicode arrow after a title on the archives page for linkposts. Is it possible to add a similar customization to the feed.rss template so that the title would get the arrow in RSS reader apps? I want folks consuming the RSS feed to know there's a linked post to go read beyond my comments. I also have a YAML value for linkpost, if that somehow works better for this use case than the tag value. {{#allEntries}} <div class="row"> <div class="column left"> <a href="{{{url}}}">{{title}} {{#tagged.linkpost}} &#x21FE; {{/tagged.linkpost}} </a> </div> <div class="column right"> <span class="smalldate">{{date}}</span> </div> </div> {{/allEntries}}

Favicon and RSS feed icon?

Should the image being used as the favicon show up as the icon in an RSS reader app? In my RSS reader app, when I subscribe to my site, the placeholder is just the default "T" on a color background that the app uses for feeds that don't have a specified icon. Wondering if I need to set this explicitly in the feed.rss file in my template.

RSS feeds per tag?

Apologies if it's been asked but are there (or can there be?) dedicated RSS feeds per tag? It would be nice to have these split out to triage posts out to different services automatically.

Add page description to RSS feed?

So in my site's head I've added {{> description}} which will take the summary field from my front matter and add it to the page's HTML meta. I'm trying to create a second RSS feed that, instead of containing the entire post contents, I'd like to have the page description from the meta and a link to the post. This is so I can use Micro.blog to automatically crosspost a summary, rather than the entire (poorly formatted) post. So I've tried adding the following to my RSS file, but it isn't working: <description> <![CDATA[ {{#encodeXML}} {{{description}}} {{/encodeXML}} ]]> </description> I've also tried {{> description}} and {{{summary}}} but none are working. How do I add the page description to this RSS feed? Thanks.

Number of RSS Subscribers?

Is there any way to know how many people have subscribed to my site’s RSS feed?

Pocket is parsing author incorrectly

I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to get the author parsed by read later services. For some reason, Pocket has pulled out "merch" as the author of my posts, and I don't know why. Any ideas? Example post.
