newsboat VS Miniflux

If you're using https://newsboat.org, you can add a filter (killfile) to remedy this:

  ignore-article "*" "title =~ \"#shorts\""

I use newsboat.

> Have you used any modern RSS reader recently like inoreader, they load the content of the page without visiting the publishing website.

I'm happy with newsboat[1]; but I'm not surprised that people have integrated scraping into RSS readers.

Fundamentally, that's not a problem with RSS, that's a war between scrapers and content providers. If the email newsletter model persists long enough, I'd expect that people will come out with "newsletter readers" that scrape websites too.

I'm not sure there's a good long-term solution to the problem. Aside from constant vigilance (obfuscation).

Here's part of my newsboat config (works great for subscriptions):

Newsboat RSS / Feed reader

Che rss feader usate? Io per il momento uso Newsboat su Desktop e Feeder su Mobile

Not so much a suggestion, but wanted to make the team and you aware of https://github.com/newsboat/newsboat and their extremely similar path.

And like with most multiplatform apps, it doesn't look native at all on iOS. I prefer my current combination of: https://netnewswire.com + https://miniflux.app

Both open source too.

Recommend checking out https://github.com/miniflux/v2

n.b. I haven't tested importing 600+ feeds!

I really like miniflux it's PWA is very nice

Miniflux

I use miniflux and it serves me well.

https://github.com/miniflux/v2 - it's an RSS feed reader (I use it, BTW).

Miniflux - RSS reader

I have miniflux https://miniflux.app/ as my rss reader. It is setup in a container and if I am outside of my home network I use tailscale to connect to the local network.
