Got the suggestion from a comment yesterday (I'll link when I find it) and I'd been using FreshRSS on it's own for a long time. Morss is a godsend for feeds that like to give you only the headline. It's also especially awesome for the Hackernews and Lobsters feeds because it will expand the posted links for you which I appreciate a great deal. Hosting it takes like 3 seconds and it's so worth it.

I've been using fivefilters for a long time and decided to give this a shot. It seems to do a decent job without some of the advanced options (ie: choosing # of items in the feed). I can't really say which one would be a better option with my limited test. Hopefully someone else who has used both can chime in.

Admittedly, I don't need anything outside of the full content of articles so I have no insight into the more advanced usage. I'm curious to see if others chime in to respond to this. Who knows, maybe I'll increase the complexity of my RSS setup

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
