It’s always good to be in control of your own content sources.

      Since you’ve used both, what are your feelings on FreshRSS vs. tt-rss?

      Around the death of google reader, I set up a tt-rss instance, imported all my saved stuff, and I’ve been using it continuously since (I’m technically in an unsupported configuration because I set it up long before docker became the preferred then only supported configuration, but it just keeps ticking installed like a normal piece of software on a rented VM).
      I’m generally super pleased, and it’s my primary mode of content consumption via browser + Android App, and I use the “note” and “share with note” features pretty extensively to plumb to some other folks with similar setups.

      Fox (the main tt-rss dev) is clearly an asshole, and there are some geopolitical complications because he’s a Russian national, but he’s made an excellent focused piece of software. I’ve considered looking seriously in to FreshRSS, but have a lot of inertia and at a glance it looks like it’s missing a few features.

          Ah, I’ve had the googlereaderkeys plugin enabled forever so I don’t even know what their default keybinds are. Unless I see something super compelling (or a serious problem with tt-rss and its ecosystem) I’m unlikely to change, but I like to keep my ear to the ground on the space.

        Check out miniflux. It works well and is VERY simple. Actively developed too.

          When last I looked miniflux wasn’t quite as featured a solution as I’m looking for (I keep a lot of notes and such embedded in my DB), but it is pleasingly simple.

            Yeah it definately doesn’t have that.

            The only thing I miss from it, personally, is the ability to delete anything older than x days.

            I routinely have to manually invert the sort preference and kick the page size up really high to clean out my feeds if I have a few days where I can’t read news.
