can someone suggest a good rss reader for android please?
As far as full-text caching... maybe a self-hosted instance or paid version of the FiveFilters Full-Text RSS service would work. You can integrate that into whatever aggregator you want.

Help Finding the Best RSS App Mac/iOS
However you can retrofit this onto any reader by using a service that creates a full text feed from a summary feed. Two that I have used in the past are https://morss.it/ and https://www.fivefilters.org/full-text-rss/.

How to rebuild social media on top of RSS
RSS feeds that don't contain the full article text drive me nuts.
Here is a workaround that I've had good luck with:

In addition to improving usability, it defeats attempts to measure clickbait summary efficacy, etc., since it breaks sites' ability to pull popularity / telemetry info.

RSS-Bridge: feeds for websites that don't have one
By any chance, could this be used as an alternative to the full-article RSS tool that FiveFilters offers?

NetNewsWire: Free and Open Source RSS Reader for Mac and iOS
Please check out FullTextRSS from Five Filters: https://www.fivefilters.org/full-text-rss/
They have an OSS version you can host yourself. It fixes the problem of sites not sharing their full text in their feed, by going and scraping the site into a full feed for you.

Show HN: Newser, utility written in go to generate a pdf with news content
This is great!
If it's useful, I work on a project where we maintain a repository of XPath selectors for extracting article content from many different sites: https://github.com/fivefilters/ftr-site-config - they're based on the original public Instapaper rules.
We also have PDF generation, but it's not really for crawling, and wasn't created for reading on a device like the Supernote, more for printing and reading: https://pdf.fivefilters.org/simple-print/

The most underused browser feature
Thanks for mentioning Instant View, I hadn't come across that. We actually maintain something similar here: https://github.com/fivefilters/ftr-site-config
We use these in our own tools and also get contributions from others, including Wallabag users: https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag
Before it was sold, Instapaper used to have something similar. A public database of its site-specific extraction templates. We used that as the starting point for our repository.

A 4 minute introduction to RSS
If you're trying to build one yourself, have a look at the open source Readability code[1]. It was originally developed by Arc90 and is now used by Apple and Mozilla in their browser reader views. The code has been ported to a number of different languages.
I work on a service called Full-Text RSS[2] that used a PHP port of Readability, coupled with site-specific extraction rules[3] to identify and extract article content from each feed item. It then produces a full-text version of the given feed. The idea is you subscribe to the full-text version in whichever feed reader you use and it will transparently give you full-text articles where you had partial content before.

RIP Google Reader
I work on a project to transform partial feeds into full-text versions. The idea is you give it the partial feeds URL and subscribe to the feed URL it generates: https://www.fivefilters.org/full-text-rss/

YouTube strikes again, it seems
The SponsorBlock [0] addon has already solved that for sponsored/ad segments in videos. Rather than AI, crowdsourced timestamps lets it automatically skip past adverts.

YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers
During this debacle I did discover SponsorBlock - https://sponsor.ajay.app/
This is different from YouTube platform ad-blocking, instead it is crowd-sourced auto-skip of in-video sponsorship messages etc. Quite configurable, really appreciating it so far.

YouTube's Anti-Adblock and uBlock Origin
> a creator having a "merch" ad integration doesn't count as an ad.
this is why you also install sponsorblock (https://sponsor.ajay.app/). Only whitelist the channels you want to "support", if you really want to make sure to eyeball the sponsorship (which doesn't really help unless it happens to be a product you actually are interested in buying).

FreeTube – The Private YouTube Client
This is from the same person that made sponsorblock https://sponsor.ajay.app/
This means that it's the community that sees sensational thumbnails and changes them to some other thumbnail. By default dearrow shows random thumbnails if no other were provided by the community. But you can disable this and show original thumbnails, but if there is a community submitted thumbnail it will show the community submitted one. I think for example the arte thumbnails won't get changed to other thumbnails as they are not sensational/clickbaity/mouth open.
