Wait, shit. Was all that just an advertisement for Feedly !?
Oh well. Anyway, for some reason, I do usually enjoy reading the 'Why CSS died' debate when it rears it's head from time to time. I have been toying with the idea of dipping my toes back into RSS.
Let's say I don't want to pay for a Feedly subscription. Does anybody know some good places to start, to explore the landscape of available open source RSS readers?
This is Petr from Feedly, we have read this article this morning, Daniel hasn't even let us know about it, so this is definitely not an ad paid by us (we don't pay publishers to write about us)
Thanks for the response Petr, and for being transparent. I appreciate that. I didn't mean to suggest foul play on either party.
In my head I was saying it in a facetious way, but I see it didn't come across that way. I was hoping to get recommendations on open source solutions that I could maybe integrate in a hobby project, or self-host.
I will consider Feedly in the future though. By many accounts I've seen, you guys are the best.
There are plenty of solutions for sure, some of the local/self-hosted, some of them open sources, some of them cheaper, etc. It is great that the variety is there and maybe they are not all listed in the article, but I guess that was not the point as David uses Feedly and wanted to showcase how he uses it.
Well honestly, I tapped out after the second 'Go Buy FEEDLY' pitch. But I did miss it, my fault, so I went back. I found said link at the bottom, and clicked it excitedly. Only to be led to some other guys article, yet another pitch for Feedly, and some other subscription service.
Queue price is right fail horn.
A quick scroll to the bottom did eventually mention Vienna RSS, and Tiny Tiny RSS, which both appear to be actively maintained. I guess I'll start there.
Thanks, I did like your writing, and I'm intrigued by the idea of 'gardening' an RSS collection again.
