- slightwinder 6y agoThen why should I use this instead of a real Feedreader? What advantage has this?
- artembugara 6y agoI think you mean feedparser. It knows how to parse the feed. So you have to give it the feed’s url
- slightwinder 6y agoNo, I mean feedreader. A Feedreader is a service which collects and parses rss-files, then makes them accessable in an interface for the user. Similar to a mailclient, but for rss. This package seems to do the first part, collecting and parsing, but lacks the interface. So what is the point of it? And if this is maintaining it's own config for sources, can I even add my own sources? Or is this just an elaborated OPML-file with attatched business-logic?
- artembugara 6y agoHey. Alright. Thanks for letting us know. I will check it tonight.
- kuu 6y agoI see, thanks for the answer and thanks for sharing!
