  • Privacy oriented rss feed that I can put my own links and turn them into a rss feed

    The best RSS reader will depend on the platform you are using, for example on macOS and iOS there's NetNewsWire, on GNOME there's Feeds, on Windows (albeit it's also available on other platforms) there's Fluent Reader, on Nextcloud there's Nextcloud News, on Android there used to be Flym, but recent Play Store rule changes led to its archival with Handy News Reader being the most active fork.

    I used Flym for a while and went to download the source one day, in fear of it suddenly disappearing, and apparently updates are blocked by Google, and the dev gave up? I'm very curious to know more about it: https://github.com/FredJul/Flym

    Since then I've used Feeder, it's similar but is missing a few things that I liked about Feeder. It was easy to export my list of feeds (OMPL file, I think) and import into Feeder: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nononsense...

    Nextcloud running the News app [1] on your own server, either an old laptop/desktop or a SBC like a Raspberry/Orange/Banana/${fruit} Pi. You'll get total control over whatever you do with the thing, as much 'free' cloud storage as you want and loads of other possible services. It runs fine on a Raspberry Pi 4 or one of the equivalent boards from other manufacturers.

    Source: I've been running this before the Owncloud/Nextcloud split, it works as advertised.

    One of the first things I do when I test aggregator sites like this one is to look for the RSS feed. I may have missed something but I did not find one here - could that be added? It would make it much easier to integrate into my normal 'news flow' which is more or less entirely built around RSS feeds presented through Nextcloud News [1]. I can scrape sites which do not provide their own feed but that is tedious and just increases the load on those sites.

  • You should be saving RSS files in archive.org
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Jan 2023
    I have contacted next cloud 'News' plugin developer https://github.com/nextcloud/news/discussions/2066 to request automated call to archive.org.

    I have received a response:

    I don't think archive.org would be very happy if every nextcloud/news install would request they store the CNN frontpage every hour for example. I think this is better suited in feed creation software since that would know exactly when a feed is updated.

  • Gripes with RSS after one week

    Previously I used Nextcloud News and enjoyed it, but recent versions require 64-bit PHP [1], which I didn’t have on the Raspberry Pi. Never did figure out why this requirement was imposed just for the News app.

    cross-platform and with an app for android would be Nextcloud News. (https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/news) - But obviously you'd be needing a nextcloud first.

    I'm using Nextcloud already and that has an officially supported RSS daemon app[1]. I mainly use it with this really good Android client[2] (that's on F-Droid) that supports connecting to it (and Miniflux it appears, which I noticed a bunch of mentions in this thread of).
