    Hi, folks. As an RSS user, I tried Inoreader and Feedly, then ended up self-hosting a Miniflux instance on my homelab. A few months ago, I moved to another city and had to shut down my homelab for a long time, so I couldn't access my local miniflux. It was quite inconvenient. I decided to self-host my RSS aggregator on a tiny VPS or PaaS such as fly.io. However, Miniflux requires a PostgreSQL database, which may isn't suitable for a tiny VPS instance. So I built fusion with Golang and SQLite. It contains basic features such as Group, Bookmark, Search, Automatically feeds sniffing,…

    Partially inspired by recent discussions on HN and other places. I've made a single-focus site to introduce your friends/colleagues/neighbours/family to RSS and web feeds. https://www.youneedfeeds.com/ The site is meant to give the elevator pitch for feeds, show a newbie what feeds are and how to use them, set them up with a reader, and give them some nice starter content if they want it. So much tastemaking and newsmaking power is concentrated in the hands of Facebook/Reddit/Twitter, but I'm convinced it's because much of the general populace doesn't…

    Two weeks until Google reader goes away. I've been building a replacement for myself: https://github.com/harold/rss-box Idea: - Really Free & locally hosted (trivially) - A node app runs locally to fetch feeds and serve up the web interface - No database at all, everything stored in files on the file system - This means that if you host the node app in your dropbox, every machine syncing that dropbox stays up to date automatically (read items, etc...) I've just been hacking here and there in my spare time, but it's become usable, (I've been using it for the last week, and…

    Hi all! Excited to share rss2newsletter after completing dev work for the initial release. The idea for this project came out of necessity, as I wanted to share my articles via email newsletter. I was looking for a super minimal, lightweight, and open source solution, and when none existed, I decided to create one. For any sizable number of email recipients, a popular platform like Mailchimp will easily cost you hundreds or even thousands per month in per-contact fees. rss2newsletter, on the other hand, allows you to use Amazon SES, so you can reach your audience at pennies on the dollar.…

    FeedRiv is an open source RSS feed reader that I built as part of my 12 Startups in 12 Months Challenge (Open Source Edition). The open source code can be found on Github: https://github.com/dashboardq/feedriv It is very minimal and probably a bit rough in some areas. I use it to track freelance jobs through RSS so it does what I need it to do.
