A recent update on my #Android phone messed up my PWA apps, including #freshrss and #Mastodon. The top status/ notification bar was overlapping the PWA, making what was underneath unaccessible and partially blocked.

I had to go into Settings - Display - Camera cutout - Your PWA App browser or program - Show camera cutout and changed the default 'auto' to 'hide camera cutout.'

If anyone comes across that, give that a try #mastoadmin. At first I thought it had to do with Mastodon's PWA but then it started happening with freshrss so I ruled out Mastodon

I’ve got my #freshrss installation automatically updating its feeds now, so that’s nice.

Amazon Linux AL2023 doesn’t include cron, preferring to use systemctl timers. So I’ve added how to achieve this in my blog post here, which is really for me when I come to reinstall this box in years to come, but in case it’s useful to someone else..

Tonight's tinkering:
a) gracefully restarting the Apache and PHP-FPM processes hourly on my image resizer box, in lieu of understanding why it keeps falling over.
b) Hopefully getting my #FreshRSS install to automatically check the RSS feeds regularly. Will write that up, once I've got some vague clue whether it's actually doing it.
c) Configuring my first HTML/XPATH scraper for FreshRSS, because ARN - Australia's worst radio group - has deliberately removed its RSS feed for its press website
d) Understanding how to get full content from FreshRSS, because a friend of mine has a partial feed

Using #FreshRSS as your feed reader? You can make it look modern and lovely.

1. In the settings menu, go to "User extensions" and turn on User CSS.
2. In the settings menu for *that*, add the following in "Additional CSS rules"...

html, body{font-family:system-ui !important;}

3. Profit.

(system-ui is your system's standard font-face, which is typically built to look really good on your machine. And, unlike the default font used by FreshRSS out of the box, it actually has *real* bold and italics.)

What is your setup for following/reading #RSS feeds?

I wanted to have something I could have full control on, sync across devices, and that I could use offline. My final solution is #FreshRSS running as a Docker container on my raspi, and @NetNewsWire on my phone… Perhaps a bit overkill but it does exactly what I want!

AVISO: Está caída #LecturaSocial pero estamos en ello. Ha coincidido que justo está Mau de vacaciones y que yo estoy a tope con una entrega, pero Mau está avisado y ha comentado que lo mirará en cuanto pueda.

El resto de servicios #EscrituraSocial, #Literatube, #FreshRSS y #Linkding funcionan con normalidad.

Siento mucho las molestias, iré informando.

#Blind people who #SelfHost, has anyone used #FreshRSS? Currently using #Miniflux, and I like how #accessible it is, but FreshRSS seems to be a little more powerful and I'm tempted to try it. The only thing is that I briefly tried the demo instance, and it didn't seem to be the most accessible. Is anyone using it successfully?

Fedi, what's your silliest use for #RSS?

I have a new #FreshRSS server I wanna take for a spin

«¿¡Una revista digital que solamente se puede leer en el lector RSS!?»
https://proxy.jesusysustics.com/2025/03/13203/

Desde luego, nadie puede decir que a Antonio Cambronero, de Blogpocket, no le va la marcha. Y es que se ha aventurado a crear RSS Magazine, una revista digital que solamente puede leerse a través de un lector de feeds RSS.

Se podría decir que es la apuesta menos viralizable de la historia. No porque el RSS sea poco popular sino, directamente, porque es imposible compartir sus artículos individuales. Y merece ser promocionada al menos por los que creemos en las bondades de este tipo de herramientas.

Si tienes lector RSS solamente tienes que suscribirte a este feed:

Nuevo caso para amar a #freshrss.

Si resulta que la web que quieres seguir no publica un RSS , le puedes pasar expresiones XPath (a alguno le entrarán temblores al recordar esta tecnología).

No es trivial, pero el caso es que parece que funciona , y ya puedo seguir las cutre-noticias de la web municipal de Alcalà de Xivert a ver si publican la escuela de Pascua para apuntar al chiquillo, caguendew.
