GetStream/WindsArchived
Winds
Winds is an open-source RSS and podcast reader that aggregates content from both feed types into a single, unified reading and listening interface. The application is designed to be self-hosted, allowing users to deploy the full stack on their own servers with configurable dependencies and environment variables.
The platform integrates with Getstream.io to deliver real-time, personalized activity feeds that adapt to individual content preferences using machine learning. It includes a full-text search engine that indexes all subscribed articles and podcast episodes for fast, query-based retrieval, and supports importing existing RSS subscriptions via OPML files for seamless migration from other readers.
Beyond core aggregation and personalization, Winds provides a unified interface for reading articles and streaming podcast audio directly within the application. It also offers command-line tools for testing and debugging RSS, podcast, and article feed parsing, as well as feed discovery capabilities that scan website URLs for linked feed sources.
