Get more out of RSS feeds, for free. Turn truncated RSS feeds into full-text feeds. Turn any web page into a RSS feed.

Got the suggestion from a comment yesterday (I’ll link when I find it) and I’d been using FreshRSS on it’s own for a long time. Morss is a godsend for feeds that like to give you only the headline. It’s also especially awesome for the Hackernews and Lobsters feeds because it will expand the posted links for you which I appreciate a great deal. Hosting it takes like 3 seconds and it’s so worth it.

Same setup as above and on android I use FeedMe. The Freshrss web app is also very good. ReadYou is still being developed but worth keeping an eye on.

Thanks for the reply. I got FreshRSS setup yesterday and found FeedMe as well. Seems to be working well and it has enough options for the interface to keep me happy. The list view is similar enough to my old Reddit Sync browsing experience that my muscle memory doesn’t have to work too hard.

I’m glad you’re liking it! It’s been years since I tried FeedMe. Maybe it’s time I gave it another look.
