I was dissatisfied with the available RSS readers, so I wrote my own called Follow https://follow.is . It addresses several key issues I faced:

- Optimized display for images, videos, audio, and notifications

- Specialized optimization for RSSHub, allowing subscriptions to thousands of websites that don't offer RSS, such as X, Instagram, and Telegram

- AI-powered translation, summaries, and a daily important news summary

Self-hosted Miniflux, and ReadKit on my Apple devices to access it. https://miniflux.app https://readkit.app I've used Miniflux for a long time, and its content manipulation features allows you to work around some of the oddities of RSS feeds you come across.

I love that I can pull whole articles. I wrote https://markdown.download for llm use, but mostly ended up using it with miniflux to fetch full articles from problematic sites

Could you please share your Miniflux configuration for fetching full articles?

How do you have your manipulation configured on a particular website?

I have been using RSS since early 2000s and currently I am settled on Feedly. > Either the built-in web support is poor or it stops fetching the feeds or renders then poorly. I guess I am good with Feedly, and Google Reader and everything before that, is because I dont use the RSS Reader to read the content. I am only using RSS as News Headline [1]. And then will either Command Click, Right Click Open New Tab, Simply…

i used to use feedly, as they were first out the gate after google reader shut down (word on the street was they had a headsup), but they jacked the pricing and introduced a bunch of needless extra features that i couldn’t turn off, so now i use inoreader.

theoldreader is also good
