Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Wasn’t sure where to ask this but figured people here host their own rss platforms. I just started with miniflux. Between that and reeder it makes RSS nice and easy.

My issue is that until the 3rd party Reddit nonsense, i let Reddit monopolize my information gathering. To the point I don’t know where else to get info from. Like which websites I can trust that aren’t just bad forms of marketing. Forums and things like that. I don’t know any of them because I spent all my time with Reddit.

Anyone have ideas or suggestions of good rss feeds for people who are interested in tech and programming and gaming and whatnot

Edit: thanks for all the great suggestions. I’m building up a nice RSS stream.

While it's not articles, you probably want to follow your favorite projects using Github and Gitlab's RSS feeds for repositories, especially the releases feed. I often learn more about actual trends (not just things people talk about but do not implement) by reading releases changelogs than by reading medium or press articles.

Otherwise, Hacker News (mentioned by temp_user) and Lobster (rss) both are good ways to follow news. HN is more verbose. Lobsters filters what they think is the best content from HN, but it usually comes a day or two later. One interesting aspect of those aggregators is that they help you discover websites that may contain their own rss feed.
