news VS rss2email

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.

NextCloud News (nécessite NextCloud installé)

If you think this is a bug, you should open a ticket here: https://github.com/nextcloud/news

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.

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.

NC News was my first RSS aggregator, back when I was doubing whether I might need something like this at all - now I can't imagine not having one

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).

I personally prefer to read my feeds via my email client, and hacked up an RSS to email script:

Having the feeds in your mail client makes sorting, and searching trivial. Plus you get the content archived for future reference.

I use rss2email to send feed contents to my inbox, from there I have a good searchable archive wherever I am - be it desktop or mobile.

I never got the hang of using a browser to read feeds, email suits me much more naturally.

I wrote yet another "rss to email" tools, which is what I use for consuming feeds:

https://github.com/skx/rss2email/

(Rewritten in go, primarily because the standard r2e was the last daemon/program on my host that required python. So switching let me drop a whole bunch of dependencies.)

I currently use a go based version of rss2email from https://github.com/skx/rss2email . Works great, and the dev is very responsive to bugs or feature requests.

RSS is awesome! I never got the hang of using a read-application, instead I use rss2email to get copies of posts delivered to my inbox.

There are a few different tools for getting the feeds to email, my own is a pretty simple golang application I run in a docker-container:

You can build from tip, or install the 1.16beta1 release, if you want to experiment. (Something I did for a couple of my projects, for example.)
