• Deep dive into finding RSS feeds

  Its interesting to contemplate an RSS-first browser that would have this functionality built-in. Think for example of promoting to full browser status a desktop RSS reader like Akregator [1] (which already embeds a webview). The browser as we now know it is mostly a static application that has long lost its user-centric mission. Websites might push some stuff but the user must do thinks manually. Its primary... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Mesa 23.1 is now on stable release for arch users!

  And maybe subscribe to arch-announce. Or use a RSS/Atom Feed reader for: https://archlinux.org/feeds/news/ I use Akkregator on my KDE desktop. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Best RSS Reader

  Akregator works well for me. I don't want to use my browser, but I want to preview the content. Source: almost 3 years ago

• How do you filter out reading and watching useless information?

  I use the default application on my Fedora KDE installation, Akregator. It's nothing too fancy but it's functional enough. I haven't explored any of the web applications that allow you to log in to your feed—for now I'd rather just export my directory of feeds as an OPML file backup if I'm switching between installations.

• What do you consider to be the best foss RSS reader that has full article in-app reading (like feeder) and keyword based filtering (like readify or sparss decsync) and doesn't require you to have your own server to host?

  If you're a KDE Plasma user, there is Akregator. I don't really browse RSS feeds, so I don't have any basis for comparison, but it does all the things you're looking for. Source: over 3 years ago

• Avoiding Outrage Fatigue While Staying Informed

  Tiny Tiny RSS is still awesome, twelve years later. It is super-easy to self-host: https://tt-rss.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Do you have any suggestions on RSS readers?

  I self-host Tiny Tiny RSS (https://tt-rss.org/). I think it will do everything you want (and more). The web UI is fine, and the Android app is great. It's actively developed, has been around for over a decade (I have been using it since Google Reader shut down) and has been super stable. I guess the only thing it doesn't have that a SaaS offering could do would be some sort of recommendation engine (which I have... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: What's your favorite RSS feed reader?

  Ttrss (https://tt-rss.org/) self hosted. When Google Reader shut down I switch to feedly for a bit, don't remember now why but for some reason I didn't like it. So I started self hosting my own instance of ttrss and haven't looked back since. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: What's your favorite RSS feed reader?

  Self-hosted Tiny Tiny RSS works well, supporting OPML import/export, mobile clients, and a Reader-like theme. https://tt-rss.org. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Is there any software you only made for your own use but nobody else?

  I maintain a fork of tt-rss[0] that I use to follow blogs, podcasts, and YouTube. I wrote a podcatcher that used the back-end database, too. I forked it back in 2005 because the maintainer wasn't interested in the direction my patches were going. My version has diverged dramatically from the current version. I have no idea how many hours I've put into it over 19 years. It has needed surprisingly little care and... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
