Maybe I'm not understand what you're asking. You want to build a list of feeds to follow, right? To avoid single point failure or censorship, right?

So stop asking for one link, and start telling us what topics you care about. There is no point in a non-custom list of RSS feeds. You need to start the process yourself.

Ars technica still supports rss by topic

https://arstechnica.com/rss-feeds/

I tend to go for the fire hose approach with news agencies AP, democracy now, CCN, RT Al Jazeera, BBC, France 24, Fox, common dreams, NPR, pew research, open source post, and a few geographically local sources. Entertainment pbs has a few, tvline, xkcd. Using capy reader.

its been a while since i checked out mine, but the ones i do still sometimes read are

hackernews frontpage: https://hnrss.org/frontpage low-tech magazine: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/feeds/all-en.atom.xml xkcd comic: https://xkcd.com/rss.xml oglaf (often nsfw): https://www.oglaf.com/feeds/rss/ and k6bd (a long comic, highly recommend starting at the beginning): https://killsixbilliondemons.com/feed/

they might not be the best for you, though, you should try looking for if the websites you read still have an rss page

freshrss doesn't cache images. how do you do it offline?

email is pretty close to the system you mention.

This is not technical, but I hope the subscriptions are getting Lyric the dog some meat along with “Home cooked meals of green beans, sweet potatoes, carrots, and brown rice”. Dogs require meat, it’s not their fault.

Theoldreader.com on the desktop and gReader Pro on Android. That app is ancient but still works and no modern app comes close to its UI.

FreshRSS self hosted. Just navigate to the website in your browser, install it to android via a browser 'app'. Assign the app to a gesture.

Now i swipe from the left and my RSS opens. Fully self hosted with no tracking beyond the websites you visit.

Akregator on desktop, Read You on mobile.

I use Feeder on android from fdroid. It was like a breath of fresh air going through a list of things I'm interested in, reading articles, and not getting sucked into the comments because there just aren't any.

Added bonus, its very limited so there's no doom scrolling, and refreshing the feed only updates with something new like every few hours. Spend a lot less time on my phone now.

I use Feedbro on Firefox. It allows you to create rules for feeds with specific checks/actions (for example to filter out items that contain specific words)

NetNewsWire on iOS has been awesome for years. Free and open source to boot.

TBH I just use the Feeder app on my phone. Fully self-contained. No account, no server, no middleman of any kind. Just the app.

I've been meaning to set up something more elaborate, but this really does work fine, and I like to mention it in these threads for anyone who's interested in RSS but thinks it's a big lift to set up. It can be complicated, but it doesn't have to be. Download an app and start adding publications that interest you. That's all it takes to get started.

a pretty basic newsboat setup though i do have a script set to update it every 30 minutes (maybe i could set it to wait longer, i dont need immediate news forever)

TheOldReader.com

Free for 100 feeds, although it added a small ad in the home page recently, which can be blocked btw.

News Explorer on macOS, iOS and ipadOS. Syncs everything, so whatever device you pick up, you can continue reading where you left off. Also supports following people on Mastodon and YouTube channels via RSS.

I use it for podcasts, the app is gPodder but doesn't require a gPodder account. It does have a search function though.

Mines very basic I just replaced the Google feed using Octopi launcher so a swipe left opens capyreader instead. It's recent so haven't put all that much on there just UK headlines some basic tech stuff and the onion of course.

Nextcloud News and its app
