Idea: A way to customize Aboutfeeds landing page by customizing the URL #22

I would like to propose the idea of customizing automatically the landing page to include the original website's feed URL.

As a site owner, instead of linking to https://aboutfeeds.com/, I would link to https://aboutfeeds.com/to/http://myurl.example.com/feed.rss or something similar so that my visitors will see my URL on the aboutfeeds landing page.

As a visitor, when I land on the customized landing page, I see a big text box that says:
"Copy this into your feed reader: http://myurl.example.com/feed.rss".

The idea comes from the Matrix chat app and their matrix.to URL that provides link to various matrix clients and makes it easy to 1 click launch each client directly into the linked chatroom. This makes it very easy for visitors.
See this example: https://matrix.to/#/#bibliogram:matrix.org

Another example is the feedburner customized XML page. They add some CSS to the XML to make it visible in browsers.Look at the box "Subscribe now!" on the right side. They have buttons to automatically subscribe using popular services. Unfortunately, their links are very outdated and most services don't exist anymore.
