FoxBot
- Ask HN: Which RSS reader do you use?
I use FoxBot (https://github.com/antfie/FoxBot) which delivers important RSS topics to my Slack. Nb I created this tool.

Miniflux
- Servo v0.0.1 Released
- What I self host
Miniflux is a "minimalist and opinionated feed reader". I host my own instance at https://rss.fredrikmeyer.net/ It is very easy to set up using Docker, see the documentation.
- A deep dive into the RSS feed reader landscape
I use https://miniflux.app and use that to sync NetNewsWire across my devices and across RSS readers. I'm using Reeder on my iPad, Miniflux on the web and sometimes NetNewsWire on my Mac.

Funny coincidence. This morning, my news aggregator delivered its daily results. The stack:
Miniflux (https://miniflux.app/) in Docker, fetching 75 RSS feeds I've collected over the years - Reading RSS content is a skilled activity
My problem with RSS is that I tend to subscribe to too many things and then it's too much. Also I wanted a solution that was free or self hosted, but I realized it's much better if someone manages the complexity for me, so I just ended up going with the paid hosting for miniflux (https://miniflux.app/).
Now I've just subscribed to a few things I care about, I open the website from time to time, quickly mark as "read" stuff I'm not interested in, and when I have more time I just go through everything that is still unread, because it's been "filtered in". Seems to work!
- A sysadmin's rant about feed readers and crawlers (2022)
> If you pull the feed, don't pull the posts. If you pull the posts, don't pull the feed. If you pull both, you're missing the whole point of having an aggregated feed!
In some cases the reader should fetch both the feed and the pages. Unfortunately, none do

- Ask HN: Which RSS reader do you use?
Self-hosted Miniflux, https://miniflux.app/
Super minimal, I have MANY feeds, and it just does the thing very well.
- Show HN: Artemis, a Calm Web Reader
This would be interesting as a project using the Miniflux API (https://github.com/miniflux/v2). That way it would already use my existing feeds and I don't have a separate "reading tool".
