boaratio, in Canonical's Steam Snap is Causing Headaches for Valve

Good. Snap is an abomination.

I use Feedly (a website that fills the same role as Google Reader) but I’m not that happy with it nowadays since they seem to be pushing for AI nonsense. Any of you self-hostey people got any suggestions for hosted RSS readers, ideally ones with NixOS modules?

ShittyBeatlesFCPres,

I have a feedly account but don’t use their apps or site. I’ve struggled to find a good Android client but Newsify on iOS is great. (I have Android and iOS devices and, at the very least, VMs of desktop OSes for developer reasons. So, Feedly syncing everything is my use case. MacOS, Linux, and iOS have Reeder or Newsflash. I barely use Windows except for building and testing and haven’t tried finding on there but I’d be curious if anyone knows of one.)

WeAreAllOne,

Feed Me for Android. It’s quite good actually!

I've been enjoying FreshRSS for the last couple of years.

RizzRustbolt, in Reddit API blew up and now I run Linux?

Yes, FOSS will allow you to fight God.

But you will have to assemble him first.

If we are in a simulation it means God is the ascended version of a gigantic Linux server

fight or find?

fhein,

I guess you’d need to find him first if you want to fight him? I think TempleOS is also FOSS in case you want to find god without fighting him.

Akregator and RSS Guard are both KDE oriented. Feature rich and highly customizable. On the phone I’ve used Read you, but lately switch to News.

Mereo,

I currently use Akregator. Which one do you prefer?

intelisense,

I prefer the non nonsense interface of RSS Guard, but then I’m reading CVE notices, so I need it simple and organised.

cocolopez,
@cocolopez@lemmy.world avatar

Still can’t decide which one to uninstall. I think akregator looks better but RSS Guard seems to have a lot of development. I’ll keep running both.

I quite like Thunderbird for this.

VerseAndVermin,

I didn’t know Thunderbird did this. I was trying to think why people would use it who have all their email in one web page already. I use Proton and it seemed unnecessary and yet everyone on Linux seems to use it. I love a good RSS reader though!

turbowafflz,

It’s much less annoying than always leaving a web browser open especially if you have multiple accounts from different providers

AVincentInSpace, (edited )

I personally prefer native email clients to web (no browser overhead, no ads, no sweet-lord-Yahoo-why-is-that-feature-there, simple no-nonsense layout, plus several features web clients don’t have like viewing message headers (which often reveal some fairly interesting information about the various servers the email passed through on its way to your inbox) and, of course, the ability to read email while offline)

Oh, I did not even know it supported RSS/Atom, that’s lovely! I think I’ll move to that then, thank you :D

Newsboat, which others recommended, also seems interesting, but I personally appreciate images, so that one is sadly a no-go for me, even if being able to ssh into a home server to check up on news, instead of having to sync the feeds across multiple devices, would be absolutely lovely.

ncln222, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

xfce4-terminal 0x0.st/H068.png

gibzag, (edited ) in What's your favourite RSS reader for Linux?

For android I highly recommend ReadYou. Its immaculate!

PS: Use Obtainium to install and update it.

krash, (edited )

Ooo, fever API is now finally supported!

Edit: feverAPI is also deprecated, I guess I’ll just use the web version of my rss-app on mobile instead

i don’t think lemmy markdown supports tables, though it should

edit: lemmy uses commonmark which doesn’t appear to support tables

moreeni,

It doesn’t but it is not the proper syntax in the parent comment.

BlanK0, in What's your favourite RSS reader for Linux?

I don’t personally use that much RSS in my computer (more on the phone) but I do know of a terminal RSS reader called newsboat.

In terms of android, I use feeder, its available on fdroid and you can also install it via obtainium

emacs + elfeed

Reasons:

  1. I’m using emacs for almost everything, so it it is a quite obvious choice
  2. Links to rss/atom are stored in a plain human readable org-mode file that you can edit manually or use VCS on top
  3. It works fine from both terminal and gui
  4. It is a fully OSS solution under The Unlicense
