We got a report that the RSS feeds on our Discourse instance were not discoverable, ie. an RSS reader fails to add them simply by entering our main Discourse website URL. I took a look at the page source and the `link` tags are there:

```html
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Latest posts" href="https://diskutuj.digital/posts.rss"/>
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Latest topics" href="https://diskutuj.digital/latest.rss"/>

```

But they are not visible from `curl`:

```bash
% curl -sL https://diskutuj.digital | grep "rss"
%

```

This could explain why the feed was not picked up by the reader. Does my `curl` test make sense? Is it possible that the `link` tags are somehow not present in the HTML returned by the server?
