freshrss doesn't cache images. how do you do it offline?
Couple different ways.
It came with my setup script back a year or so ago but https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions/tree/master/xExtension-ImageProxy works. Also the caching occurs when it gets transfered over to my phone or client. The client does the heavy lifting. I dont really care after that.
I remember that extension but I didn't user it because it didn't cleanup after it self (old not needed images stayed in cache).
what is "your phone"? you mean an app? I know about text caching (I don't know if frehsrss has an option to get original page for RSSs that has just a simple text that redirects to full page), but even inoreader that had that (if i remember correctly) didn't have image caching.
TTRSS reader. It has a "cache image" button on it. I assume it works.
Ive never had any issues even outside of internet. comics come in from what I see.
it works with freshrss self hosted?
Yep doing it now! :)
tt-rss and frehsrss are two different self-hosted apps. are you sure using that app doesnt mess with freshrss?
...Im not sure what to tell you. freshrss has an API that TTRSS-Reader works on the backend with. And its working. Fresh ALSO has its own frontend that can work.
In preferences theres an "connection" area. Otehr than showing you a lot of screenshots im not sure what else to say. GL!
