Title: HELP: rss feed reader
Post by: tarocchilla on August 07, 2022, 09:25:40 pm
Hi!
So i am loving the yesterweb and all, and i would love to have regular updates of my favourite blogs without bookmarking 700 tabs.
RSS feed readers are a great solution for that, however i can't seem to find a good one for me! So if anyone knows one i'll leave what i want from it :3c


If anyone can help i'd be glad! thanks!

Hi tarocchilla!

It's funny you get to mention that. I'm currently building something like that. I wanted to publish it this weekend but it will have to wait a little more. :smile:

Ooph m15o to the rescue :grin:

Your actually looking for 3 things! A desktop feed reader, a mobile feed reader and a feed aggregator (the thing that collects your feeds and syncs them)

Its true, most feed aggregators are paid these days and while you can self host FreshRSS (Like meeeee) it only makes sense economically if you already have your own web server.

If you use a Mac and an iPhone you can use NetNewsWire (https://netnewswire.com) and it will sync your feeds over iCloud for free, but thats only good if you are into the Apple ecosystem.

Im surprised more e-mail providers don't also offer feed aggregation :omg:

I didn't even know i needed all these things! :omg: unfortunatley have no server and no apple products (well...maybe it's not unfortunate to have no apple stuff) but thank you alot!!

I am kinda surprised too that there are no free options for not-really-tecky people! I think maybe that's the reason it fell out of popularity :eyes: but there are many new things on the way (like fraidyc.at 2 and m15o's project) so i am sure we will go back to use it as a society ^^
