Technology

I self host FreshRSS and among the many sites I subscribe to, I also subscribe to quite a few hashtags on Mastodon which I'm aware isn't highly publicised so not everyone knows you can do that.

If someone reads this comment that didn't know you could do that -

Instance/tags/hashtag.rss

Eg:

https://mastodon.social/tags/introduction.rss

You are welcome.

(Set your purge limits aggressively, because despite people suggesting otherwise, you will very quickly have thousands of unread articles to trawl through)

I been using the feeder app and its really good to get tech news , just add the RSS links and you have news that choose to read and not recommended bullshit.

If only youtube sill offered a RSS feed from all my subscriptions. It's so annoying that I can't figure out how to get it.

The fun thing is, I never left it. Even when people wanted to convince me that it was unusable, no sites used it or Google reader being killed meant there was no point anymore.

Flym works well enough.

I'm honestly tempted to start looking into RSS, I've never used it before but now without reddit it would be nice to have a centralized location to view absolutely everything relevant to my interests.

I'm a big fan of feedly but the issue I run into is if I miss a few days it takes so long to sift through everything to find what I'm most interested in

I was using Feedly for a long time but just discovered and paid for NewsBlur and it’s amazing. The killer feature is being able to easily see new posts as they come in as part of the Ui rather than having to refresh.

Feeder is a great Android app. It even fetches the full content from Paywalled sites

ya but I dont want active control. I want passive control. I'm lazy. :(

I keep freshrss open in a smallish window on one of my monitors at all time. It alike a scrolling feed of all the news and things of the day and I can glance at it or check it as needed.

Feedly has been a decent RSS service for me. While not self hosted it has been worlds better that TTRSS. That said, it has been roughly a decade since I assessed the space so I am open to alternatives.

I use snownews in Linux, and had just figured out how to subscribed to RSS feeds of Reddit subs a week and a half ago. Whoops.

After using RSS feeds for a while on my phone, I switched to using them exclusively on my laptop. Having them on something not as easy to whip out as my phone makes me less inclined to compulsively check them.
