It actually has many different feeds! I wasn't aware of them when I wrote the article, but I recently discovered them. Here's the basic format:

Definitely going to subscribe to some of these myself, now that I know about them.

Is there a way to add a search term? I've been trying variations of adding ?q=searchterm to no avail.

Not that I know of, unfortunately. Supporting a search term seems significantly more complicated, although certainly useful.

You could always submit a feature request and see if someone would be willing to implement it.

UPDATE:

To create an RSS feed for your profile:

  1. Create a post on your profile. The RSS feed will be created right away
  2. Wait about 15 minutes. For some reason that's how long it takes for 3rd party services to detect the feed

Hmmm ... although my web browser says there's an RSS feed at my profile that matches the author feed URL you provided, neither Inoreader nor IFTTT detect it. Any ideas?

I'd love to migrate to dev.to from Wordpress.
