Selfhosted

38768 readers

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.

With Twitter being worse than ever, I can no longer pull local news and municipal events through Nitter's RSS feature.

Since so many groups have stopped using RSS to deliver news, and have put all their eggs in the social media basket, it leaves a void that can't be replaced by signing up to a dozen newsletters.

Do you guys have any other solutions for maybe scraping websites to generate RSS feeds or something like that?

I'm using FresshRSS. It has web scraping, but seems to require a lot of manual syntax entry, and seems to error out regardless.

Thank you. I'll try to get that setup on docker at some point today.
