I have a follow up report for this post.
I actually transferred a domain to Hover.com to try this out since my host didn’t offer that kind of granularity.
I created a forward from another domain ‘xyz.com/rss’ to my ‘notes.bryan.lv/rss’ at Micro.blog. But when I type in xyz.com/rss into my browser it redirects correctly but then my rss feed reader subscribes to the forwarded address where it’s truly at, defeating the purpose. It’s only when I type in xyz.com/rss directly into my feed reader when this works appropriately.
I’m not sure how good that forward really is at keeping your followers if the link is clicked vs put into a reader manually.
