Is freshrss the best alternative at this point?

[–] jadelord@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 8 months ago

It always has been.

[–] brainwashed@feddit.org 5 points 8 months ago

I use and like it.

I like FreshRSS - I also have some readers that connect to my instance, like FluentReader that provides a better full article view, but I mostly use FreshRSS directly these days.

[–] tehWrapper@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Looks like it supports a wide range of readers with two different API .

FreshRSS supports access from mobile / native apps for Linux, Android, iOS, Windows and macOS, via two distinct APIs: Google Reader API (best), and Fever API (limited features, less efficient, less safe).

Yeah, it’s great, fast, works with lots of local clients and has lots of plug ins for whatever esoteric need you might have. I can fly through the days articles very quickly with a handful of key presses.

If you already have a Nextcloud instance I can recommend the "App" called News. There is an official android app that works well.

[–] tehWrapper@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

I have had nextcloud in the past and may go back.

I didn't like it, as it didn't have the exact full article view mode I desired, but lots of people like it.
