I use Slack to get notifications on new articles (I then read them on the original website), and it does not resolve to /feed. Is there a standard for feed paths (/rss.xml seems common) that readers crawl when given a URL ?

It’s not a standard path, it’s this element:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="/feed/" title="Hn blogs newsletter"/>

You can even have multiple (I think wordpress standard is "articles" and "comments" feeds) of them for different feeds.
