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.

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

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…

I just want to vent here a bit: Feedly is the only app I ditched because I did not understand the interface. AT ALL. I tried multiple times, like really hard, over the course of 2-3 years, and all it delivered was a feeling of being insanely stupid. I started my attempts around 2012 (kind of around Google killing Reader). I could not understand if that app even deliver that same functionality as Reader, could not…

Write things down! All the weird things and ideas, put them into categories and write them down. This categories can also have a to do list. Use some kind of calendar.

> I want to host my own RSS server though and then maybe use a native reader to view it, like an RSS of RSS feeds. I’ve been using Tiny Tiny RSS to do this for years. It works very well. https://tt-rss.org/.

I would recommend Tiny Tiny RSS or FreshRSS as examples but you can use anything you want, there’s plenty of them. Why would you want to pay for something like this?

Back when I was using Tiny Tiny RSS I’ve developed af_feedmod to download the article from the linked webpage so you’d end up with a full feed. This was later forked into FeedIron and seems to be somewhat popular by now.

I believe Google killing their feedreader site helped kill off RSS, combined with the rise of Facebook and other sites wanting to keep eyeballs on their site. I switched over to TinyTiny RSS and have several hundred sites I follow.

My solution may not be for everyone, but I use tt-rss (https://tt-rss.org/) on a private webserver I run at home. It aggregates and organizes feeds as I wish, then supplies its own RSS feeds that consist of the items it got from the other feed. You can read the feeds using the web interface, and/or using any other RSS reader software you wish.

A shout out for Tiny Tiny RSS[1] for a self-hosted feed reader. I used a heavily modified fork from years ago but the current version looks pretty good. (I made a couple of really simple contributions back in the day but decided maintaining my own fork was the easy path. The maintainer has a reputation for being a bit prickly to deal with.)

I have a couple of Raspberry Pi’s, I’m thinking to designate one as a TTRSS server (currently my feeds are with NetNewsWire + iCloud), maybe also my own xBrowserSync backend and other small things. NAT traversal is not a problem thanks to Tailscale, so looking for more small things to self-host.

All these feeds end up in my Tiny Tiny RSS instance which has further filters/automated labeling. I sometimes “star” articles which I want to read later.

Inoreader is an online service offered by a company. If you don’t want anybody to know what feeds you follow, you’re going to have to use an offline RSS reader like Feedbro or install a client like Tiny Tiny RSS on your own server.

I own an iPhone but also don’t use Apple’s built-in functionality unless it supports standards-based services that I can self-host (CalDAV, IMAP, etc). I pull podcasts into my forked version of tt-rss[0] and use a script to pull down the enclosures onto my local webserver. I play the episodes using Safari (which, admittedly, is a sub-optimal experience) on my iPhone. (In my dreams I’d write an HTML5 front-end to…

There are RSS readers like Tiny Tiny RSS [1] which are able to do exactly that (in this case using a PHP port of Mozilla’s library [2]). Does not work in 100% of cases but is a really useful thing. [1] https://tt-rss.org/ [2] https://github.com/fivefilters/readability.php.
