I am really looking forward to working on next update for Twine RSS reader. It should contain groups support and redesigned expanded bottom sheet ui/ux.
Dear friends of #BSDCafe and the #Fediverse,
today marks exactly 8 months since the BSD Cafe was announced to the world. Our community has grown and is made up of wonderful people who add tremendous value to the content seen both on our Mastodon instance and other channels (primarily Matrix).
For this, I am truly grateful!
One of the first services we launched was Miniflux, but, in fact, it never really "took off." The main reason, in my opinion, is that registrations are not open but require contacting me directly, which (I am aware) greatly limits the freedom to sign up. The reasons why Miniflux is not open for immediate registration are various, but the main one is that the developers offer paid hosting that helps fund the project. By offering a free service with immediate access here, I risked undermining them - something I wanted to avoid.
Therefore, I have decided to introduce another RSS Reader, namely FreshRSS. Registrations are open and free, and the tool, like the others, runs exclusively on BSD systems (currently, FreeBSD).
I will update the wiki page with information and instructions as soon as possible, but the server is already active and operational for a few days - and is now on the Status page.
Does anyone use #RSS Readers here? What are your favorite features? What are you missing?
I'm trying to make an #OpenSource RSS reader that doesn't compromise on UX or features, and looks good.
@uncomfyhalomacro I host https://github.com/slurdge/goeland on my home server to send me emails based on RSS feeds and also have automatic labelling set up in Gmail for it. (You can have username+label@gmail.com as the recipient and set up labelling based on that, you don't have to put any extra information into the subject/body of the email)
Since I get on average 1 email per day from my RSS feeds, there is no reason for me to have a separate app for it.
Are there any #rss feed readers that synchronize between multiple devices without a remote server (self-hosted or otherwise)?
It'd be great to have my subscriptions synchronized between my phone, desktop, and laptop without needing to use a service or self-host. I know I could probably set something up through syncthing, but it seems like it should be simpler.
Nicely chuffed with 37 stars for my minimal #rssreader ode to Google Reader written in #golang with #htmx . I use it frequently, far more than any other software I've written for myself. There's something to be said for scratching ones own itch in the simplest manner with no excess features. That anyone else finds it useful is a surprise and a joy.
Did #Reddit finally kill the API for #RSS? My #RSSreader is telling me all feeds are failing. A shame if true, but I assumed it would have happened on the 1st
So mein #RSSFeed in #OPML exportiert und dann fein säuberlich alles in #Friendica gefolgt und #Gruppen (zukünftig wohl #Circles)) einsortiert.
Mal schauen ob sich das bewährt. Wenn ja ist ein #RSSReader bei mir nicht mehr notwendig.
Hello fellow #rss fans. Is it possible to connect my Mastodon feed to my #rssreader Feeder? I haven't tried it yet, since I only started using Feeder earlier today and I'm about to finally go to bed. Still learning the ropes.
To those who are in perpetual search for a #RSS reader, I can't recomment @Inoreader enough. It's always been great, but I love it even more after their recent redesign. Great for RSS power users who want to: set up keyword alerts, subscribe to YouTube channels, get newsletters via RSS, sync everything between devices, while supporting a European company.
I like that I can see in the web UI –and subscribe to the #RSSfeed of– any hashtag used by a person on #mastodon 👌
I can also find way quicker anything I posted for a given hashtag.

At the end of 2022, I consolidated my multiple Twitter accounts into one final account and combined my "Following" list entries which dated back to 2009, for a total of 2469 entries. Over the last month, I pruned all "Following" entries not posting in a year or longer, which was 424 of them. I was left with 2045 accounts I was "Following". 17% of the accounts I followed on Twitter had become defunct! 👀
The pruning activity was nostalgic. I was reconnected with the many companies hoping to find success in the most recent VR wave beginning in 2015 - many who had begun creating VR games, physical VR locations for public use similar to old videogame arcades, tactile wearables, etc. There were also several indie GameDevs seeking startup capital. I admire their commitment and determination, and for taking the needed risks, but most simply went out of business or failed to raise the necessary funds.
