Earlier quoted context omitted.

Maybe also have a look at my https://www.pipes.digital/ if you want that :) Filtering and merging RSS feeds is the main use case, and I made sure to have some features to enable building on top of other pipes (a prominent fork button for shared pipes and a pipe block).

Great stuff :) That's exactly what I meant :thumbsup: I actually found www.pipes.digital in my mind map with a comment to the effect that it's a Yahoo! pipes replacement - so I come across it a year ago in fact. I'm sticking to Node-RED simply because that's what I know - also its open source and very extendable, so that's why its my cup of tea. EDIT: Pipes is also open source --> https://github.com/pipes-digital/pip…

Great that you found the Foss version :) I hesitated there because it needs an update, and node-red is great and easier to extended. So if you are already familiar with it a great choice.

I can save them in the favorites but I'm not used to check favorites regularly. Feeds are a tangent solution because they give you only the new stuff.

I am using a self-hosted instance of https://linkding.link/ which works great for hoarding a bunch of links. I am using multiple machines and different browsers and keeping bookmarks on the cloud is just not my thing.

I use FreshRSS, self hosted, and it lets you set and fetch x amount of old articles. I think I’ve got it set to 25 but 5 if the default.

What year was this written? All for people doing their own sites/blogs. But social media is the RSS feed and has been for like 15 years. Short form posts that link to long form posts. Social posts that link to the content you've published wherever. And the reposting of other curated favorites is the extra feed portion. The change in recent years is ppl skipping the self-hosting/POS part of the POSSE and posting direc…

This is a little triggering :) Reminds me of all the promise back in 2005 when I built my first startup Grazr. It was: - a widget that was a mini RSS reader that let visitors to your site read the RSS feeds you subscribed to on your site - a way to share your collection of RSS feeds dynamically - a way to copy / remix those collections - a way to subscribe to those lists dynamically (if they had a dynamic blogroll or…

Cool piece of internet history (including video), thanks for sharing this!
