Very neat. I've been doing this with Calibre (https://calibre-ebook.com/ https://calibre-ebook.com/), which involves plugging it into your PC via USB. Simple RSS feeds work with little configuration, and more complicated news sites require writing a custom python "recipe".
This project uses Amazon's email gateway, which I think is limited to 25 articles per month (don't quote me on this).
- ajot 2y agoCould Calibre (or any other software) generate an OPDS feed? I know that at least KOReader has support for OPDS[0], maybe vanilla Kindle firmware has it too. That would let you forget the part of connecting your device to a PC. [0] KOReader also has an RSS reader, but I'm not sure how good is it and what it can support in terms of feeds "complicatedness"
- bodhi 2y agoCalibre-web can, I use it with an app on an iPad. It’s not immediately obvious how to access it, but here’s a GitHub issue with good info: https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/issues/2103 https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/issues/2103
- gryffyn 2y agoI use KOReader's RSS reader, I haven't run into any issues yet. It supports RSS and Atom, supports pulling the full article text if it's in the feed, supports images, and puts each feed entry into its own epub.
- BeetleB 2y agoIndeed. I used to this in Calibre all the way back in 2010.
- nik_0_0 2y agoFWIW to avoid the plugging in (which I hated) Calibre can be configured to send emails as well, which works well with the email to kindle feature, and with a little fiddling you can bridge the gap to have Calibre auto-email you.
