How will Nextdoor use my news content?
Nextdoor converts content provided via RSS into a newsfeed post with a link-preview of the article (i.e. headline, excerpt, thumbnail). When a user clicks on the post they will go to the post detail view where they can easily view comments and engage. From this view they can click “Read Article,” which directs them to the publishers’ website to read the full story.
