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.

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.

Plenty of sites you follow have no feed, a broken feed, or announcements buried in an inbox, and mkfd turns all three into clean RSS feeds you control. You point it at a webpage, a REST API, or an IMAP mailbox and describe what counts as a story: an item selector plus selectors for title, link, date, author, and enclosures. Drill chains follow links across several pages when the real content sits deeper than the listing page, and an advanced scraping mode with a real browser handles pages that need JavaScript or your own browser extensions. An integrated selector helper helps you pinpoint elements on the target page instead of guessing. Email feeds watch a folder continuously and publish new messages as feed items the moment they arrive, with mailbox passwords encrypted before they touch disk. Every feed gets a schedule, is rebuilt in its own worker, and is served from an endpoint your reader can subscribe to, and the whole configuration lives in a portable file you can version and reuse. Access to the builder is guarded by a passkey, and feed endpoints stay open for your reader.
