The Vivaldi web browser adds a new level of customization to its RSS feed subscription feature

So, I'm tentative to announce this project, as the server it's running on is a bit of a potato which will probably fall over pretty quick if it gains any traction, but...

Introducing RSS Temple!

If you're interested in a free RSS reader which attempts to mimic some of the more useful features of the big players (Feedly and Google Reader, in particular), including full-text search, hotkey navigation, small footprint interface, and sharing to both Lemmy and Mastodon (among others), I would love if you gave RSS Temple a try.

I've been working on this project for ~7 years now, and I alone cannot find any more bugs or usability issues, so I hope it's ready for the community to see. Any feedback is appreciated!

The code is open at:

https://github.com/murrple-1/rss_temple (server, Python)

https://github.com/murrple-1/rss_temple_ui (landing page and web app, Angular and EleventyJS)

https://github.com/murrple-1/ansible-collection-rss-temple (Ansible scripts to deploy one's own instance)

I am familiar with RSS Bridge, but I recently came across RSSHub, and I'm not sure exactly what it does differently than RSS Bridge. Would someone be able to compare the two, or explain why you would use one over the other?

Is there any universal or newsboat specific way to do this? The RSS feed itself doesn't even hint at it being a short, so probably not.

I'm looking for an RSS reader that would be able to have its data synchronised across devices using Syncthing (it just should store its data locally in a certain folder that looks the same on all devices).

Any suggestions?

Hi I'm not a fan of social media and I left TW recently because I realized I spent too much time in there doomscroling and getting angry. That's how I found Lemmy

but there are still a few IG and TW accounts that I would like to keep tabs on (local news, content creators, stuff like that) Is there a way to maybe put all that in a single app in a controlled feed? I though maybe RSS (Been using Feeder recently, still building my sources but I like it) could be an answer but I haven't found a tool that's free and still working (I know it's the opposite of their business model)

My hopes are not high, but thanks im advance for any answer

The third party applications section of FreshRSS's site lists several apps that haven't been updated in years or have ads, unfortunately. https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/blob/edge/README.md#apis--native-apps

Are there any good, FOSS Android apps that work with FreshRSS? Ideally including bookmarks, labels, and syncing read articles. Or at least one that is "good enough" for your use? The site is awesome on mobile, however I do not get notifications on new articles in a category.

I recently made a post looking for an RSS feeder with some sort of intelligent content surfacing system, and have just stumbled upon exactly that. All analysis is local and so far seems to be quite good.

Github: https://gitlab.com/ondrejfoltyn/nunti
FDroid: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.nunti/

Does anybody have any recommendations for FOSS RSS readers with actual content surfacing features? So many RSS feeds are full of junk (this is particularly a problem with feeds with wildly disparate posting frequencies) and I've always felt they'd be a lot more useful if people were putting more effort into a modern way to sort through extremely dense feeds.

EDIT: Actually just stumbled on one for mobile. Check out Nunti on android (https://gitlab.com/ondrejfoltyn/nunti)

May be a dumb question but are there any one in the same fediverse and rss readers in one for android?

I use Inoreader and I've noticed that the RSS feed for lemmy.ml has proper thumbnails/previews for images while the lemmy.world feed doesn't show any images (just links for the posted images). I contacted Inoreader to see if the problem was on their end. I received the following feedback:

Actually, we've already checked that, but unfortunately, we couldn't improve the image preview for the exmapled feeds. The thing is that the provided links to these images are not properly presented in the feed source, which is causing that. We suggest you address this with the feed publishers.

What settings need to be changed so that the images are "properly presented"?

They are working again in different URLs:
https://anto-finnstark.artstation.com/rss

The old ones don’t work for me:
~~https://www.artstation.com/anto-finnstark.rss~~

See previous post: ArtStation RSS Feeds broken - lemm.ee

EDIT: They are working again in different URLs:
https://anto-finnstark.artstation.com/rss

The old ones don't work for me:
~~https://www.artstation.com/anto-finnstark.rss~~

EDIT-2: It seems that openrss has added ArtStation feeds too:
(Thanks to @mark@programming.dev for noticing).

e.g. https://openrss.org/artstation.com/patrick_ganas

ArtStation RSS Feeds stopped working a few days ago. Probably along with the recent UI changes, although I am not 100% sure.

I sent an email to support@artstation.com asking if it's a bug or an intentional change. I haven't got an answer yet.

I'm posting it here to let people know and just in case anyone has more info... or some alternative. I don't see ArtStation featured in the usual services: openrss.org, RSSHub.

EDIT: There is hope. An ArtStation post from 15h ago appeared on my RSS reader. The RSS Feed still doesn't work, but this should mean feeds are not 100% dead.

Behance

Behance's autodiscoverable RSS Feeds do not work*, u/gurkoz found that there are working hidden feeds:

"https://www.behance.net/feeds/user?username" + behanceUserName

Example for user bernhardlang:
https://www.behance.net/feeds/user?username=bernhardlang

* All Behance profile pages show the same RSS Feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/behance/vorr) which, although it looks like the feed for the user vorr, it contains posts from all users. I find it useful for discovering new artists.

DeviantArt

DeviantArt doesn't have RSS autodiscovery but they have RSS Feeds. From their documentation):

"https://backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?type=deviation&amp%3Bq=by%3A" + deviantArtUsername + "+sort%3Atime+meta%3Aall"

Example for user loish:
https://backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?type=deviation&amp%3Bq=by%3Aloish+sort%3Atime+meta%3Aall

Do you know of other sites with hidden RSS feeds?

TL;DR: The Times (UK) no longer provides RSS Feeds, Open RSS does.

Content summary:

• Google removes RSS button from Chrome browser
• Google acquires FeedBurner and limits RSS
• Google shuts down Google Reader
• Google removes RSS from Google Alerts
• Google kills its RSS browser extension
• Google removes RSS integration from Google News
• Google's still at it...

Is it possible to have an RSS feed for Artstation or DeviantArt or maybe other art websites that is filtered by a search term?

For example if I wanted to search/filter for "spaceship" and I wanted to get an RSS feed of all new artworks that would be found by that search term.

Can this be done? I'm pretty new to RSS feeds

very good self-hosted RSS reader
