Selfhosted RSS, best android RSS client app? reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deivi98 · 2023-10-14 23:19 So, after doing some research and trying the best self hosted RSS solutions out there, which are in my opinion FreshRSS and Miniflux, I am struggling to find a good Android client for them. I don't mind if it's through Fever API, Google Reader API, Miniflux, etc. As long as it is supported by one of these two servers. I haven't really found any android client that matches these features: - Thumbnails - Background sync & notifications - [Bonus] nice UI - [Bonus] To be FOSS Is there any app I am not aware of? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- opinionsnotmine · 2023-10-14 23:39 FeedMe ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dazchad · 2023-10-14 23:41 Miniflux with the web app works perfect. You can make it a PWA but it doesn’t do anything the plain web app does. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tcfjr · 2023-10-14 23:45 Commafeed is FOSS and works great in a browser and thru their Android app. Here's the docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/athou/commafeed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- h4mster1234 · 2023-10-15 00:34 tried several and am sticking with Focus Reader now. not FOSS though I'm afraid! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2023-10-15 12:57 [removed] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- reddittookmyuser · 2023-10-15 16:24 Only spent 10 minutes using it and immediately deleted my FreshRSS instance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kir-01 · 2023-10-15 20:54 Does it have an android app? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jmagahh · 2023-10-15 22:59 Oh... Haven't heard of this, will most likely be replacing freshrss with this because UI. Where is this android app you speak of though? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- reddittookmyuser · 2023-10-15 23:18 I just use it via browser. Try it out: https://www.commafeed.com/#/app/category/all ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tcfjr · 2023-10-16 00:59 Apparently the app I'm using has been deprecated since I installed it. The new method for reading your Commafeed items is described here: [https://github.com/rozbb/CommaFeed-Android- Reader](https://github.com/rozbb/CommaFeed-Android-Reader) >NOTICE This project has been discontinued. The current method of using Commafeed on Android is to download News+ with the Commafeed plugin written by Athou. Here's a link to the News+ github page: https://github.com/noinnion/newsplus ---------------------------------------------------------------------- emptymatrix · 2023-10-16 05:30 Miniflux + FeedMe is my combo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deivi98 · 2023-10-17 07:31 Does it send notifications to you? Can you see thumbnails? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deivi98 · 2023-10-17 07:32 Miniflux is just the best backend to me. However PWA is not what I am looking for ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deivi98 · 2023-10-17 07:32 Does it send notifications to you? Can you see thumbnails? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deivi98 · 2023-10-17 07:34 Didn't know about this one. It's not as actively maintained as Miniflux, but seems interesting. I can't find any documentation anywhere. What APIs / connections it offers to clients? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dazchad · 2023-10-17 14:05 Yeah I don’t use it either. Web version works perfect with gestures disabled ---------------------------------------------------------------------- opinionsnotmine · 2023-10-17 14:55 Not sure if there are notifications, but there's a widget. There are thumbnails, too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tcfjr · 2023-10-18 00:24 Here's the Github: [https://github.com/Athou/commafeed](https://github .com/Athou/commafeed)
