One statically-compiled Go binary over PostgreSQL, no ORM, no framework, static assets embedded in the executable: Miniflux is the minimalist, opinionated feed reader. The opinions are the feature: page layout, fonts, and colors are tuned for reading, and everything else is treated as noise. It consumes Atom, RSS, and JSON Feed formats with OPML import/export, organizes articles with categories and bookmarks, fetches original full-text content for summary-only feeds, and provides Postgres-powered full-text search. Privacy work happens automatically: pixel trackers are stripped, tracking parameters removed from URLs, a media proxy blocks third-party tracking, referrers are never forwarded, and there is zero telemetry. Navigation is keyboard-first - j/k through items, o to open, f to star - with touch gestures on mobile. Podcast, video, and music enclosures are supported, and YouTube videos play inline. Over 25 integrations save articles onward to Wallabag, Readwise Reader, Pinboard, Linkding, Instapaper, Notion, Telegram, Matrix, Ntfy, and more, plus webhooks and a REST API with Go and Python clients; the Google Reader API endpoint supports existing mobile reader apps. Authentication spans local passwords, passkeys (WebAuthn), Google OAuth2, OpenID Connect, and reverse-proxy headers. It is Apache 2.0 licensed, translated into 20 languages, and updates feeds on an internal scheduler.

Where Miniflux strips reading down, FreshRSS gives you knobs - the feature-rich pole of self-hosted RSS, comfortable with thousands of feeds. It's a multi-user PHP aggregator (host family and friends on one instance, with an anonymous reading mode) with the reading workflow refined over a decade: favorites, custom tags, powerful filter and search queries, three reading views, and statistics that reveal each site's publishing frequency - useful for pruning subscriptions. Two properties make it the standard choice. First, the Google Reader-compatible API (plus a Fever API) syncs with virtually every serious RSS client - Reeder, NetNewsWire, ReadYou, FeedMe, Fluent Reader - so your phone reads from your server. Second, native WebSub support means compatible sources (WordPress, Blogger, Medium, Friendica) push new articles instantly instead of waiting for polling. A 50+ extension ecosystem adds what truncated feeds omit - full-text content fetching, reading-time estimates, trending views, auto-unsubscribe for dead feeds - alongside community themes and custom CSS. OPML import/export keeps subscriptions portable, a CLI handles administration, and article sharing posts to many services. AGPL-licensed, running on SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL. Feedly Pro's feature set, minus Feedly's subscription and its algorithms.

CommaFeed delivers the Google Reader experience on your own infrastructure with modern performance characteristics. The Quarkus-based Java backend compiles to native code via GraalVM, achieving sub-second cold starts and 50MB memory footprint — a fraction of traditional JVM RSS readers. Four distinct layouts (title-only, expanded, magazine, and card) with light and dark themes adapt to any reading style, while comprehensive keyboard shortcuts cover navigation, marking, starring, and feed management without touching a mouse. The Fever-compatible API and newly added Google Reader API connect native iOS and Android apps (Reeder, Unread, FeedMe, ReadKit) directly to your instance. Per-feed push notifications through ntfy, Gotify, or Pushover alert you to new articles instantly. The visual query builder for automatic read-marking rules replaces raw expression syntax with an intuitive condition editor supporting title, content, author, and URL matching. OPML import and export enable seamless migration from any RSS service. Custom CSS and JavaScript injection let power users completely restyle the interface, while the browser extension adds one-click subscription from any website. Docker images for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 with H2 embedded database require zero configuration to start. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Follow every blog, newsletter, and news site you like from one distraction-free inbox with the self-hosted Fusion RSS reader, which has no AI features by design. A left sidebar lists feed groups with unread counts and jumps between Unread, Starred, and All, while the center list shows articles under filter tabs with read and star buttons on every card. Click a card and a right-hand drawer opens with the full sanitized article, a link to the original, and Previous and Next buttons. Press Cmd or Ctrl+K, or the slash key, to search feeds and articles from anywhere. Stay on the keyboard with Google Reader-style keys such as j and k to move, m to mark read, s to star, and g then u to jump to Unread; the question mark lists them all. Add a feed by entering a site address and letting auto-discovery find it, then pick its group, refresh frequency, and HTTP proxy, or suspend it to pause updates. OPML import and export bring subscriptions in or out. Starred articles are saved as snapshots that outlive their source feed. Fever API compatibility lets Reeder, Unread, and FeedMe read the same library. Sign in with a password or OIDC single sign-on, and install the interface as a PWA with Light, Dark, and System themes in eight languages. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Most RSS readers hand you a pile of headlines and make you do the reading; FeedMe reads first and hands you the pile already digested. It aggregates every feed you configure into one clean, ranked stream, and for each article an LLM writes a short summary you can scan in seconds, with the full original text one tab away when a story earns a deeper look. Sources organize into categories like Tech News, Finance News, Personal Blogs, Company Blogs, Open Source, Research, and Podcasts, and a global search finds stories across all of them. The reader never sleeps on stale content: a built-in cron refreshes feeds and regenerates summaries on your schedule (every three hours by default in Docker), so the page you open in the morning already covers the night. Summaries answer to you, not a vendor: point FeedMe at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint and tune the prompt, input truncation, temperature, and token budget, with output in the languages you choose. There are no accounts, no forced logins, and no app to install; the responsive page works on phone and desktop in light or dark themes. Because the whole application is a static site, it stays fast and cheap to run, and the same build can live on GitHub Pages or Vercel if you ever want a public edition next to your private one.

Your reading, back under your own roof: WyrmRSS is a self-hosted RSS reader that follows all your feeds from one web and mobile interface you control. Paste a blog homepage or a YouTube channel URL and feed discovery finds the actual feed for you, then background polling keeps every subscription fresh on an interval you set. Posts can be browsed per feed or as one combined river, and each feed gets a display mode: River for the main flow, Feed only for direct visits, or Radar for quiet sources you check occasionally. Folders in a collapsible sidebar carry unread counts and survive OPML import and export, so moving an existing subscription list in or out takes minutes. Per-feed filters include or exclude entries by URL, title, or content patterns, which tames noisy channels by dropping shorts, trailers, or job posts before they reach you. YouTube and HLS or Reddit video play inline in the reader, full-text search covers titles and descriptions, and Read Later plus archiving keep the important pieces. Keyboard shortcuts move, open, mark, save, and archive without the mouse and can be rebound in Settings, webhooks notify Discord, Slack, or custom endpoints on new posts, and feeds behind authentication are handled with per-host credentials. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Staying on top of hundreds of RSS feeds is impossible when every reader just dumps articles in chronological order. RSSMonster takes a different approach: it evaluates, scores, and prioritizes every article so the signal rises above the noise. The three-pane reading interface automatically marks articles as read when you scroll past them, while the built-in quality scoring engine rates content by freshness, originality, trust, and attention metrics. Compose advanced search expressions using field operators like star:true, quality:>0.6, hot:true, and date filters like @today or @lastweek, then save those expressions as persistent Smart Folders for one-click access to curated views. Semantic event clustering groups related articles across sources so you see one coherent story instead of fifteen duplicates. Connect your favorite mobile client through the Fever API (supporting Reeder for iOS) or the Google Reader API (compatible with News+, FeedMe, Vienna RSS, and ReadKit). The AI chat assistant powered by the Model Context Protocol lets you ask questions about your feed content and get summarized answers. Import your existing subscriptions via OPML, switch between light and dark themes, and install the app as a Progressive Web App for offline reading. On RepoCloud, deploy RSSMonster on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, full data ownership, and persistent storage under the MIT license.

Subscribe to a feed and Oksskolten fetches the complete text of every new article, cleans it, and files it as Markdown in a library you can read without leaving the app. About 500 cleanup patterns strip ads, navigation, and tracking, with no per-feed toggles or selectors to maintain. No feed on the site? Auto-discovery goes first, then RSS Bridge, then LLM-inferred CSS selectors, while FlareSolverr gets past bot protection. Every feed is checked on its own schedule, somewhere between every 15 minutes and every 4 hours. Inbox, Read Later, Liked, and Read views keep the queue tidy. Clip any URL as a standalone article. Likes and bookmarks feed an engagement score that shapes search ranking and recommendations. One click summarizes or translates an article through Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI, Ollama, or vLLM, with Google Translate and DeepL as translation engines. Ask the chat questions about your archive, or point Claude Code or Codex at the built-in MCP server to use the same tools. Search forgives typos and covers every stored article. Login works with a password, a passkey, or GitHub. Pick from four layouts and fourteen color themes, import custom themes as JSON, rebind keyboard shortcuts, and keep reading offline as a progressive web app. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Flus is a calm feed reader, read-later app, and bookmarking space combined into one self-hosted reading home for the blogs, podcasts, video channels, and articles you follow. You follow sources through RSS, Atom, or JSON feeds and organize them into thematic streams, then let the Journal suggest what to read next from everything you follow at a pace you control. Links you want to keep move into collections where annotations and tags record why they mattered, and the to-read and already-read lists keep unfinished reading from silently disappearing. Collections, streams, and individual links can be shared publicly on your profile so others can follow them, or privately with specific collaborators, and everything interoperates through Atom feeds, Mastodon sharing, OPML import, full data export, and a developer API. A powerful search engine finds saved material later, tracking parameters are detected and stripped from URLs, and the installable web app plus browser extensions for Firefox and Chrome make saving a link a one-click habit from anywhere. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

QMReader is a self-hosted reading workbench that treats RSS as raw material for knowledge you keep, not a pile of unread badges waiting to be cleared. Subscribe to RSSHub routes, direct feeds, sitemaps, Hacker News, Product Hunt, GitHub Trending, and Hugging Face Papers, and new items land in the article list immediately while translation and rewriting finish in the background. English headlines gain Chinese translations automatically, and full articles can be read as the original, a Chinese translation, or a plain-language rewrite, all kept side by side on the same page. Highlight passages, attach your own commentary, and open an AI conversation scoped to the article in front of you instead of starting from a blank chat box. Work you produce becomes a public reading asset with a stable link: translations, rewrites, comments, and dialogues collect on contributor pages and flow out through asset catalogs and RSS feeds for the next reader. Split background workers keep fast feed fetching separate from slower AI processing, and search, unread, popular, favorites, and history views keep a heavy reading habit navigable.

Reading the news should not mean opening twelve tabs about the same event, so MuckScraper folds every outlet's version into one story and shows you how the coverage differs. A scheduler fetches RSS feeds several times a day, with optional NewsAPI and GNews keys adding more sources, and each article is embedded and matched against recent stories so wire copies and follow-ups land together instead of flooding your feed. Every story carries a bias balance: how many left, center, and right outlets covered it, with each outlet rated from AllSides data or scored by the model where no rating exists. Local language models write the story summary and a deeper report comparing how each side frames the event, what is contested, and what nobody is mentioning, while guardrails reject cut-off summaries and figures that never appeared in the sources. Opinion columns stay in their own lane, linked to the stories they argue about and rounded up separately, never counted as news coverage. Twice a day the system publishes a balanced edition of twenty stories, and every past edition stays readable alongside full-text search across your whole archive. Reader, scraper, and admin roles decide who can simply read, who can trigger fetches, and who manages feeds, prompts, and users.

Information overload is the default state of the modern internet, and Glean exists to tame it by pulling every blog, newsletter, and news source you follow into a single, organized reading experience with an interface that prioritizes clarity over clutter. Subscribe to RSS and Atom feeds, import your existing subscriptions via OPML, and organize everything into multi-level folders with a flexible tagging system that lets you slice your reading list by topic, priority, or mood. A three-pane layout presents your feed list, article summaries, and full content side by side, with one-click actions for marking articles as read, saving them for later, bookmarking favorites, or archiving what you have already processed. Background workers fetch new articles every 15 minutes so your feeds stay current without manual refreshes. The preference learning engine (backed by Milvus vector embeddings) scores incoming articles against your reading history and surfaces a personalized Smart Feed of content you are most likely to care about, reducing the time spent scrolling past irrelevant posts. A built-in MCP server lets AI assistants like Claude Desktop search and interact with your feed library directly. The admin dashboard on a separate port provides user management, system monitoring, and configuration controls for multi-user deployments. Bookmark external URLs from any browser with the Chrome extension, or access your feeds on mobile through the Progressive Web App. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Foreign-language feeds are where good information usually goes to be ignored, and RSSBox fixes that by translating, filtering, and merging RSS sources, then republishing them as clean feeds your existing reader can subscribe to. Add a feed, pick a translation engine, and RSSBox republishes it with titles, full articles, or summaries translated, optionally showing both languages side by side. Each feed can use a different engine, from DeepL to any OpenAI-compatible model endpoint, and the admin shows translation status plus the tokens or characters each source has consumed. Update schedules are set per feed, so a fast-moving news source refreshes hourly while a quiet personal blog checks in once a day. Keyword filters quietly drop the recurring topics you never open, and AI filtering goes further by judging items against what you actually read. Tag several related sources and RSSBox merges them into a single unified feed, translations and filters applied, ready to follow as one stream. Full-text fetching pulls complete article bodies from feeds that only publish excerpts, so the translation covers the whole story rather than the teaser paragraph. Your reader app never changes: it simply subscribes to the translated feed URL like any other source.

The antidote to doomscrolling: Upvote RSS turns Reddit, Hacker News, Lemmy, Lobsters, PieFed, Mbin, and trending GitHub repositories into calm, filtered RSS feeds. The MIT-licensed PHP app's killer feature is intelligent filtering: beyond simple score thresholds, the "posts per day" filter analyzes a community's recent history and computes the score cutoff that yields your target volume - say, exactly three r/technology posts daily - while a percentage-based threshold mode stays consistent as communities grow. Feeds are rich, not bare links: parsed full-article content via Readability (with optional Readability.js, Mercury, or Browserless for JavaScript-heavy pages), embedded videos and image galleries, top-voted comments with pinned-moderator filtering, scores, reading-time estimates, and optional AI summaries through Ollama, OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Mistral, DeepSeek, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint - with automatic provider fallback. A web UI builds the feed URL interactively with live preview; paste the result into any RSS reader. Reddit support includes custom domains like old.reddit.com plus NSFW filtering and blurring. Caching via filesystem, Redis, or APCu keeps repeated fetches cheap and avoids re-running paid summarizations.

Excerpt-only feeds, truncated teasers, and articles in languages you do not read make RSS feel broken; FeedCraft sits between the source and your reader and fixes the feed itself. Pick from more than twenty single-step crafts: extract the full article text, even from JavaScript-rendered pages through a headless browser, translate titles or whole articles, add AI introductions and summaries, strip ads and clutter, or filter items by keyword, embedding similarity, or a natural-language prompt to your own LLM. Chain crafts into FlowCraft pipelines, so one pass can limit a feed to ten items, fetch every full text, drop the advertorials, and summarize what survives. Save the result as a recipe and FeedCraft hands you a permanent crafted feed URL that drops straight into the reader you already use, while portable mode transforms any feed on the fly from a single crafted URL prefix. When a site has no feed at all, the visual generators build one from a webpage with CSS selectors, from a JSON API with curl import, or straight from search results. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

RSS-Bridge gives a feed to every website that never offered one, so social profiles, video channels, and news pages become subscriptions for any feed reader. Pick a bridge, enter a username or search term, and the generated URL returns Atom, JSON, HTML, MRSS, plaintext, or Sfeed output. Dedicated bridges cover YouTube channels and playlists, public Telegram channels, Reddit users and subreddits, Mastodon instances, Twitch channels, TikTok accounts, SoundCloud users, and Rumble channels. When a site has no bridge, CssSelectorBridge and XPathBridge scrape its pages into a feed from the CSS selectors or XPath expressions you provide. FilterBridge keeps or drops items by keyword, FeedMergeBridge folds several feeds into one stream, and FeedReducerBridge thins out noisy sources. Caching keeps upstream services from banning your server for repeated updates, and a token or HTTP basic authentication keeps a private instance closed to strangers. The enabled_bridges setting limits which bridges appear in the menu, and a failing bridge reports its error as a feed item, so your reader notifies you the moment one breaks. A new bridge is one small class file dropped into the bridges folder, and a mounted config folder carries your custom settings across container restarts.

Self-hosted and built around long reading, Omnivore saves articles, newsletters, and PDFs, renders web pages as clean text, remembers your place, and keeps every highlight searchable. Pages arrive from the web app's Add button or from Chrome and Firefox extensions that authenticate with an API key. Newsletters arrive through generated email addresses once an IMAP watcher or another mail bridge is set up. PDFs open in the same reader and accept highlights and notes just like articles. Labels, saved searches, and filters such as subscription:"Name" make a big library easy to slice. The RSS section follows your feeds, lets you add a story to the library or hide it, and can sort stories into topics when an OpenAI key is configured. Custom extractors scroll lazy-loaded pages, follow paginated articles, and strip pop-ups before saving. Rules trigger webhooks when pages are created or updated, which suits automatic labelling and other custom workflows. E-ink reading settings add double-tap page turns and volume-button scrolling, and Android and iOS apps sync the same library.
