Revisiting the Planet

We’ve been running our blog aggregation at lisas.de with a WordPress-based solution using the long-obsolete feed-pull plugin for ages. After receiving complaints that the cron hook for the plugin was pinging other hosts, I decided it was time to replace our aggregation solution (again).

So, welcome to the new LUGES Planet! We now have a few lines of Python to aggregate the blogs into Markdown using feedparser and render them to static HTML using the Hugo static site generator.
