V2
This project is a self-hosted RSS feed aggregator and reader designed to collect and organize content from RSS, Atom, and JSON feeds. It functions as a privacy-focused client that blocks pixel trackers and strips URL parameters to prevent third-party tracking and referrer leakage.
The system is built as a REST API feed reader, exposing its data and user accounts through a programmable interface for third-party clients. It maintains compatibility with the OPML standard for importing and exporting subscriptions and provides tools for web content extraction using readability parsers and custom rules to retrieve main body text.
Broad capabilities include full-text article search via database indexing, content filtering using regular expressions, and automated workflows through webhooks. The project also includes multi-method user authentication and tools for user account administration.
The application is distributed via Docker container images, cross-platform binaries, and Linux system packages.
