Wonder if anyone has made a self-hosted way to create a 'my.yahoo' or netvibes , pageflakes kind of page with rss feeds? I started to put together some plugins for wordpress/buddpress to allow people to make som…
I was looking for something like that for a long time after all the browsers kinda removed that functionality. I'm not using the following for Safari and it's great:

#23Always great to see more RSS readers. Are you thinking about making it API compatible with others so people can use any of the existing apps? I'm currently using https://github.com/miniflux/miniflux (Also written in Go) and it supports the Fever API which means I can use any app on most platforms to sync with.
author here. I personally don't use apps, but if there'll be enough interest from the community, I might consider making it fever-compatible in the future.

I wrote/use this greasemonkey script - https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/6261-rss-atom-feed-subscri... - it still mostly works but strict CSP on sites these days has been causing some trouble. Maybe turning it into a browser extension is the thing to do.

#26Earlier quoted context omitted.
There are so many projects out there, it's hard to avoid naming collisions. I don't think a project with 10 stars can lay exclusive claim to a four letter name.
There are already many RSS readers with this name: https://github.com/channikhabra/yarr https://fossdroid.com/a/yarr.html etc. The name sounded familiar (I think I used one in the past) so I googled and I haven't found it, but I did find many others.
