A year ago I started to be annoyed by traditional social networks like Facebook and Twitter and started to look for alternatives.
First part of my solution is Mastodon. Open source social network that I ended up running on my own home server. No more ads, no more post sorting by relevance. Just a chronological wall of posts that I want to see. I am so glad that there is software like this...
For example CzechTV video library ivysilani.cz has no RSS channels.👎
On the other hand, mall.tv has such RSS channels per show and it is so convenient to just subscribe to my favourite show. 👍 No notifications, no emails, just open rss reader when I am ready to watch.
@stepan There is feed43 which will scrape pages and present feeds, but it has some limits. I have half of a clone of it on my site, currently entirely unusable, so I hacked together a feed parser for mangadex since they haven't done that in v5 yet.
@Zergling_man I am currently running a RSS-Bridge. https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge It is a modular service which scrapes webs and presents them as RSS feed. But this shouldn't be needed in perfect world...
@stepan Of course. It's nothing more than a patch fix.
@stepan podpora RSS byla přidána do sračkomatu, viz https://sracky.1984.cz/rss
@mig Hned je svět o něco lepší. 😀
Second part is RSS reader. I ditched Feedly and moved to self hosted TinyTinyRSS. Again: no more post sorting by relevance. Sadly, many webs don't support rss feeds. It used to be more common for websites to support RSS.
