Social Media on RSS? (lemmy.ml)

Hi I'm not a fan of social media and I left TW recently because I realized I spent too much time in there doomscroling and getting angry. That's how I found Lemmy

but there are still a few IG and TW accounts that I would like to keep tabs on (local news, content creators, stuff like that) Is there a way to maybe put all that in a single app in a controlled feed? I though maybe RSS (Been using Feeder recently, still building my sources but I like it) could be an answer but I haven't found a tool that's free and still working (I know it's the opposite of their business model)

My hopes are not high, but thanks im advance for any answer

Not effortlessly, because nearly no modern social platforms publish RSS feeds anymore. You might be able to find third-party tools or services that consume public content from these platforms and spit out an RSS feed, but these tend to come and go due to changes on the platform side that break them, either on purpose or by mistake.

Some TW accounts are Mastodon-mirrored and readers just like Feedly, Inoreader etc support mastodon.social URLs. If no Twitter mirrors, maybe try bird.makeup in Mastodon and paste the URL into your reader?
