Hello everyone! I've been wanting an RSS aggregator styled like old-school reddit for a while now and I finally got around to sitting down and writing it this week.

Fair warning - it has very few features and probably many bugs. If you find one, please let me know! I will be eternally grateful.

How do you add a subscription?

How do you add a subscription?

If you submit a url to an RSS or Atom feed on the account page, the site will generate a page for the channel, take you there, and automatically create a subscription for you.

Or, you can click on the channel name underneath the title of an entry (Published by ___) and there should be a Subscribe/Unsubscribe button near the top of the page.

Do added subscriptions by one person show up in the global feed for everyone?

Nobody can see which channels you're subscribed to but, yes, entries from all of the channels that have been entered into the website show up in the global feed.

tos ? porn rss?

I'd like to have something like this where the up down votes started to put people into groups so that tribe A's likes were shared and tribe A's likes wouldn't affect the view of Tribe B, tribe C doesn't get affected by A or B and so on.

I had a black page with JavaScript disabled. You should at least display a message "please enable JavaScript".

Thank you so much! I completely agree. I meant to add this at some point and it must have slipped my mind.
