Yes!

What RSS does NOT stand for “Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh” , “Nathuram Godse, who assassinated Gandhi, on January 30, 1948, was a member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, or R.S.S., a violent right-wing organization that promotes Hindu supremacy.” (src: HolyCow!)

RSS stands for (“Really Simple Syndication“) FEEDs are still a very practical thing to follow certain websites & blogs & news outlets & aggregators & stay current on those platforms.

• Instead of letting big media outlets shovel news indiscriminately down the main-stream’s throat,
• it would be wiser, to run one’s own news-aggregator
• that tries to pull in news from the sources the user likes & trusts (hopefully content of high quality and truthfulness / “neutral” (unbiased) reporting)

RSS Apps let’s the user subscribe to many many websites, blogs, news-outlets, platforms WITHOUT (!) leaving a mail-address for spammer to extract and exploit (unsubscribing is as easy as setting: delete URL from the Appp’s settings)

Want to stay up to day with the latest news? News Junky?

try:

• Feeder
  • more modern, lightweight, receives updates
  • actually analyzes if it can read the feed, before adding (very good! as there are a lot of different formats)
  • Android App Feeder how to subscribe to RSS Feed in 10seconds:
• (old-outdated) Digisocken’s RSS reader app
  
  • old, outdated, can not deal with a lot of formats
  • warning! consumes a lot of cpu & ram (only install on smart phones with fast hardware)
• on the Desktop/Laptop/Workstation/PC Thunderbird can do RSS
  

• or self hosted (a website on a server) MiniFlux (some screenshots here)
• iOS: Fiery Feed
• more news reader programs for various OS: https://www.rss-readers.org/

apt search rss – what’s in the repo?

Problem: RSS is somewhat standardized, but there are many versions and not ONE standard file format for ( check if a website’s rss-format is valid rss with this online-tool: https://validator.w3.org/feed/), some apps such such as this one does not support them all, here is an RSS 2.0 sample file (rss checker still not satisfied)

• tested and works: (when RSS app is installed, subscribing is as simple as tapping those links from Firefox.apk (at least in LinageOS-Android))

DigiSocken (very old and never updated) RSS App:

• it’s a well done app, but it was not updated in decades
• it has troubles subscribing to some RSS feeds that does not comply with what it considers “standard”
• so it’s better to use Feeder App, as it has a “analyze feed” function, that does a check, if the App can read the feed
  • it can read most, but not all X-D as
    • no kidding, some feeds divert so much from a standard, that it will refuse to read it X-D
    • if a feed “should” be readable, can be validated via: https://validator.w3.org/feed/)

by the way those settings are saved to:

/data/data/de.digisocken.anotherrss/shared_prefs/de.digisocken.anotherrss_preferences.xml

(which is only reachable via ssh)

in case the user wants to backup or transfer this list to a new device

THE MOST IMPORTANT SETTING TO PUT “ON CLICK(TOUCH) OPEN ARTICLE IN BROWSER (APP)”

it does not do it per default: go to EINSTELLUNGEN (Settings): go to “Tipp-Verhalten” (Touch-Behaviour) and select “öffne im Browser” (Open in Browser)

 

• “The App AnotherRSS is a Atom RSS Feed Reader and very similar to ViboraFeed.”
• show me the Source Code: https://github.com/no-go/AnotherRSSWebsite: https://no-go.github.io/AnotherRSShardware requirements:
  • independent news needs some hardware power:
    • fast phone (CPU & RAM)
    • fast inet connection/WiFi recommended
• RSS Desktop programs: (untested!)
  • thunderbird can do it

    • Description: feed/news/podcast client with plugin support

      It supports:
      • aggregating feeds in all the major syndication formats (including
        RSS/RDF, Atom, CDF, and more);
      • synchronizing feeds across devices, with TinyTinyRSS and
        TheOldReader support;
      • downloading articles for offline reading;
      • permanently saving headlines in news bins;
      • playing podcasts directly in Liferea’s browser interface;
      • social networking / web integration so you can share your favorite news
        articles to Facebook, Google+, Reddit, Twitter, Slashdot, Digg, Yahoo and
        many more.

  • https://github.com/lwindolf/liferea

easy to get started:

1. install the app: (for whatever reason Nexus 6P + LineageOS refuses to install the signed App)
   1. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.digisocken.anotherrss/
   2. so here is a backup of (working fine) App version: 2.22_222
      • Another RSS_2.22_222.apk.zip
      • Another RSS_2.22_222.apk.zip.sha512sum.txt
      • whet else is there for Android:
        • https://search.f-droid.org/?q=rss&lang=en
        • and other OS?
        • https://www.heise.de/download/products/nachrichten/rss#?cat=nachrichten%2Frss&page=1&os=ANDROID

   3. Non-Personal information is being collected by this App!

   4. the author says: “I DO NOT collect non-personal information like user’s behavior:”

      • to solve App problems
      • to show personalized ads

      The google play store collect non-personal information such as the data of install (country and equipment).

      Privacy Questions.

      If you have any questions or concerns about my Privacy Policy or data processing, please contact me.

2. browse to the user’s favorite website an attach rss: https://dwaves.org/rss

   • 
3. or: search for “NewsPaper that the user wants to subscribe + rss” on https://duckduckgo.com
   1. https://www.fsf.org/rss
      • https://www.fsf.org/static/fsforg/rss/news.xml

no rss?

if a news outlet or website does not have a rss feed, mail them! (it is a shame)

RSS news on desktop? Yes! Thunderbird can also do that!

how to subscribe to blogs websites news sites via thunderbird and rss feed – why is it imho better than a newsletter

PS: diaspora social network should really export RSS feeds too… but it is so slow already probably would slow it down even more
