This could really benefit from auto-discovery. Asking users to find the FAQ then construct a URL is not a very effective measure.

The auto-discovery TL;DR is if you put a link tag like the following onto a user's pages then you can subscribe to the feed just by putting any of their articles into your feed reader. This may also help SEO as Google and other search engines will discover and watch the feed.

    <link rel=alternate title="{username}" type=application/atom+xml href="/rss/?feed={username}">
I wrote a bit more detail about auto-discovery here: https://kevincox.ca/2022/05/06/rss-feed-best-practices/#disc...
