FYI FreshRSS is fairly trivial to self-host, and is a really nice option for an RSS reader app.
- senectus1 1y agoFreshRSS is dabomb! Highly recommend it.
- vanc_cefepime 1y agoPreferential to Miniflux myself, but any RSS reader is better than none.
- theshrike79 1y agoI tried both, but Miniflux was like 15% _too_ bare-bones for me. FreshRSS hit the sweet spot for me, combined with NetNewsWire as a mobile UI
- gullevek 1y agoYeah, even as a desktop UI NetNewsWire is great. FreshRSS rocks
- wyclif 1y agoNetNewsWire is beginning to choke for me because I have a large number of feeds. I was using it today and when I pressed Alt-K to "mark all as read", it beachballed on me and I had to force quit. This has been happening more often recently as I've added more feeds.
- digital_voodoo 1y agoSame here, tried both and sticked with Miniflux that seems on the lighter side. I don't really need the web interface or an app, because I channel everything towards a Telegram bot, where I read the feeds: a glance at the title, "Instant View" or long read if needed.
- emigre 1y agoI have been using miniflux for a while. I love it. It's great.

- DonHopkins 1y agoWho old enough to remember when everybody was syndicating all their favorite RSS feeds on their own blogs, and then some joker posted a blog entry to his own RSS feed with a title like "What happens when you put an unbalanced <BLINK> tag into the title?", and the ENTIRE BLOGOSPHERE started blinking?
- danillonunes 1y agoPeople were literally XSSing themselves and the worst someone did was a funny prank. Those were simpler times.
- ibfreeekout 1y agoThis is what I use, and I also have Readrops on my phone that syncs back to my FreshRSS instance. Makes it really convenient to have a lightweight reading app where I can submit new feeds to it and have it sync back to the server.
