I think everybody on here is constantly keeping an eye out for what to host next. Sometimes you spinup something which chugs along nicely but sometimes you find out you’ve been missing out.

For me it’s not very refreshing or new: Paperless-ngx. Never thought I would add all my administration to it. But it’s great. I probably can’t find the thing I need, but I should have a record of every mail or letter I’ve gotten. Close second is Wanderer. But I would like to have a little bit more features like adding recorded routes to view speed and compare with previous walks. But that’s not what it is intended for.

What is that service for you?

    FreshRSS, i had it installed and setup with a fee feeds for over a year and only like this month has it become my daily read, i can get almost everything in there to just read through while I drink my coffee, sites I bookmarked but never go to can now come to me.

    Also with ‘five filters full text rss’ to get all the images in the feed

      Would you mind elaborating a bit? I’ve been looking into good rss solutions lately and blogs without a feed were where I got stuck. How do you use five filters? How do the two components work together?

      Edit: Also, some sites WITH a feed like Pitchfork are next to useless when all you get is the headline.

        Here’s a short blog post that summarizes how to use Full-Text RSS with FreshRSS. It’s a bit of a pain to add new feeds but it makes for a smooth experience afterwards.

        Otherwise, you could always just use RSS clients that have the ability to fetch full articles, Read You on Android and Fluent Reader on desktop both can do this.

          That plus a browser extension that finds the right rss feed for you like get rss feed url on firefox.

          I copy the rss with the extension
          Then I paste that into five filters
          Use that to give it to fresh rss which will get me a nice looking post with images and text

      Love FreshRSS. It really is something that I didn’t know I needed. I often switch RSS apps, and it allows for seemless transitions.

        The extension is to get the rss link to paste into five filters

        Five filters takes the link and gets all the images and all that then makes a new rss link that you give to fresh rss.

        When I tried just fresh rss a lot of the sites I tried wouldn’t get me images or it would be just the headline and I would have to click the link and go to the actual site to read the article
