Don't save the full post content in Markdown files like https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml.org/blob/main/data/planet/dra27/dipping-toes-into-oxcaml.md?plain=1 or republish the full content in the Planet RSS feed, https://ocaml.org/planet.xml

There's no need to save the full post content because we never display it anywhere in our site. We just directly link to the original blog posts.

We republish in the RSS feed, though.

But I think those shortened content pieces in the RSS feed could as well be replaced by an AI summary or something like that.

ETA: I'll address this when I touch the RSS feed / social media automations again.

How does this compare to #2573 ?

I was trying to say that there's no need to republish the full content of the posts in the Planet RSS feed; in fact many people prefer that feed aggregators don't do that and rather they send the traffic to the original posts.
