Instead of Feedly
An RSS reader with recommendations and search.
Swap it
RSS never went away and the readers got better. FreshRSS is the one to run; Miniflux is the one to run if you like a small, fast binary.
You lose: Some site search and the AI-ish prioritisation.
Start here
FreshRSS
Full-featured, with extensions and mobile clients. The interface shows its age in places.
github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSSfreshrss.org
One container, no domain needed.
Also worth a look
- Miniflux
One binary and Postgres. Opinionated, minimal, fast.
- CommaFeed
Looks closest to Google Reader. Smaller project.
