Goeland VS rss2email

I'm slurdge, maintainer of goeland. goeland is a simple but powerful RSS to email that aims to replace RSS2Email. It is a self-contained golang program that will use one configuration. It also has a docker image. It is best suited to make digest of your RSS sources and push them to your mailbox.

I use a self-made program, goeland, which allows you to have emails digest from RSS feeds. I use it to get news digest, daily wikipedia facts, cute pictures send daily or weekly to my Inbox. It's like rss2email but in my opinion easier to use and the emails are nicer to the eye.

For a long time I've been a happy user of rss2email, originally written by Aaron Swartz. https://github.com/rss2email/rss2email

It periodically fetches the rss feeds, and sends the content to a specified email address where you can use your email reader to sort them into folders.

Assuming you have a "good" email client, this takes care of most of my RSS requirements: Free software, offline availability, and the ability to read anywhere.

The only missing feature I think it could use is a nice GUI to manage feeds.

If you are looking for free high polling frequency your other option is probably self-hosting. You can run https://github.com/rss2email/rss2email yourself and configure the polling rate. You can probably use the SMTP service of your current email provider to send these messages at no additional cost to you. You do need an always-on computer to run it on and the knowledge to run it (or the willingness to learn) but I know a lot of people enjoy rss2email.

looks like there's a lib for that already too https://pypi.org/project/rss2email/

You can do an equivalent thing on your own machine with https://github.com/rss2email/rss2email

Debian/Ubuntu has the original version of rss2email (https://github.com/rss2email/rss2email) in the repos, and it is in the AUR. Not sure about Fedora or SUSE.
