    Hello all, I am looking to start getting back into RSS feeds but nothing Ive found so far matches all of my requirements so i was going to see if you guys had any advice.

    My requirements are:

    • Self hosted (preferably with an official docker container)
    • I should be able to view it in the web, as well as with an Android app but it doesn't have to be a first party app
    • It has to look nice and modern, preferably with a dark mode option

    Anything you guys know of that would meet all three of those things?

    Not exactly what you asked, but if you're gonna read from Android, I highly suggest CapyReader.

      I use Newsboat from command line. Great distraction free way to get your news. Easy to open up a browser if I wanna see a video or picture too with it

        Freshrss and capyreader here. Best combo I found after a long time.

          I'm trying out freshrss right now and don't like it. Possibly my issues stem from user error, but, I can't figure out how to automatically hide articles based on keywords, adding extensions is a pain, and the ui feels large and very in-the-way. By default it truncates article titles, which I find absolutely baffling.

          The filter is being a pet peeve of mine too these days

          I would like to be sure that I’m filtering stuff but looks like filters on miniflux and freshrss just work on future articles so I should do something like put a filter to an rss feed I control and then post and check if it works

            I seconden FreshRSS, but I use Readrops as Android cliënt. Nothing beats the normal FreshRSS mobile experience though.
            I haven't tried Capyreader yet, but I'm gonna check it right now.

              Stupid question, but how does it work? Is it just the website that you follow? Or is it an app? I've looked through the website already, but the whole RSS feed is still somewhat vague to me.

                Did you get it to run? I tried it for about a day or so, and only got it kind of working

                  I'm actually paying a yearly subscription to support the project. I have the self-hosting task in my backlog, but I keep dragging it 😶‍🌫️

                    I installed Capyreader for the capybara, but stayed for how nice the app is.

                        I host my own Tiny Tiny RSS (TT-RSS), but I've used the public instance of CommaFeed too many years ago, before I started selfhosting.

                        I really like TT-RSS, especially with my own theme I made, but the container image I'm using now is outdated and has some problems, and if I want to upgrade I'll have to switch image to the official one, and I won't be able to simply migrate my data over, as TT-RSS has since dropped support for MySQL completely, so I'm considering just hosting Commafeed instead (since I have to start fresh anyway).

                        I prefer RSS readers that feel a bit like Google Reader (R.I.P. - Gone but not forgotten)

                        If you're interested I wrote a quick HOWTO to migrate TT-RSS data from Mysql to Postgres a while ago. Ctrl+F search for Migrating tt-rss data to Postgresql from a MySQL-based installation here

                        I still use that same migrated database 4 years later

                          I highly recommend trying CapyReader for mobile, it is much snappier!

                          Thank you for the suggestion! I've been trying it out for a few days now and it is my new favorite app in terms of design. I'm having a strange problem where it keeps logging me out every couple days, but other than that I love it

                            Glad to hear!

                            And the developer is quite responsive, open up a GitHub issue with the details and I'm confident it'll get sorted out.

                            He's also on Mastodon:
