Can I read somewhere how that works?

I tried to find myself, but there is a bit more detail on the help site which isn't very well linked to: http://help.micro.blog

Thanks. After searching a bit more, I found the page about Feeds [1], and while it seems to touch the topic, it is rather shallow.

A specific example is given on the IFTTT [2] page, but I am unsure if that is the best way to achieve RSS cross postings on micro.blog.

API feeds is to pull data from Micro.blog - for example replies. To enable cross posting from your existing blog, a setting can be enabled. From the help page on getting started [1]

> "If you already have a blog, such as one based on WordPress, connect it to Micro.blog by adding the feed URL to your account under Account → “Edit Feeds”."
