This looks awesome, definitely gonna try this out! Any plans to add images/thumbnails? Looks like gofeed already returns them.

I don’t plan on adding thumbnails, as they go against my initial vision for tinyfeed as a text-first UI like lobste.rs. However! one of tinyfeed’s core tenets is flexibility and customization, so if you want thumbnails, you can simply create your own template. If you need help you can open an issue, I would gladly help.

I gave up on RSS a long time ago because Outlook basically just linked a bunch of news articles, didn’t really good me anything to read without going externally.

Are you saying this would take those article details and organize into a usable proper website from multiple sources?

Check the demo: feed.lovergne.dev/demo

It links out to the source webpage, so this might not be what you’re looking for.

Although this might inspire me to build a single page app generator using Astro that does that.

This still looks really good!!! Thank you!

Just like the other comment said, tinyfeed is not what you are looking for, it’s goal is simply to be an aggregator for links, not content.

Still, a dramatic improvement over Outlook. It’s been a while but never seemed to play well. Might set this up

Mostly no AI. I use it to review doc because I make a lot of typo / spelling error as English is not my first language. Recently I also used it to accelerate writing test cases but that’s all.

This is not a recent or “fast” projet, I have been slowly improving it for 3 years now :-D

Use Harper, instead. It runs locally, and gives nearly instant results.

I have no right to suggest this or ask it but I was thinking this would be cool to integrate into a home assistant dashboard and then I realized what would be really cool is a web server of sorts that you can program up an RSS feed in, and the system will refresh the feed at whatever interval and on the back end an agent would go to the whatever the source is, let’s use Reddit as an example. Takes the posts photo and content as well as summaries of top comments and parses them and then puts the content in its own system with a deep link to the original Reddit post if you need it or want it. Then the front end would show the items as a carousel of content with image thumbnails and titles and small content description and date and time posted. That way you can quickly see through content either on your phone or a smart dashboard without ever going to native pages or applications.

Sorry I’m high and also can’t program my own shit cause I’m a regard

What’s the difference? Bugs are bugs

Surely you can ask a better question about quality and craftsmanship. AI is not going away

Very nice. Simple, straight forward. Could be used as a homepage. Thank you!
