Read You (RSS client) 0.9.12 released with support for FreshRSS & gReader API (github.com)

A beautiful RSS client finally adds support FreshRSS, my self hosted RSS aggregator of choice, and also for the gReader API that plenty of other services use. The dev notes however that at this time Inoreader is not supported via gReader API.

I’ve got my FreshRSS server going and I use its web app as a client on my phone. I don’t hate it, but don’t love it either. I will check this out for sure.

Neat! I tried to add my freshrss server and got an error:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">...

My URL is of the format freshrss.example.com, my tls certs are good, and I’m using freshrss version 1.23.0

I think you still have to specify the URL up to the greader.php page, maybe in your case it would be

freshrss.example.com/api/greader.php

What incredibly obvious thing am i missing that i cant add my freshrss account? It is all just greyed out…

Yeah, had the same trouble with the f-droid version. Tried the github apk and there it isn’t greyed out.

jgkawell@lemmy.world on 06 Feb 2024 21:50 next collapse

F-Droid apps typically lag behind GitHub releases because their build pipelines are different. So in this case the latest version (which supports the freshrss API) isn’t available on F-Droid yet.

Same issue here. Deleted the F-Droid version. Easy way is to add it via Obtanium and let that manage your updates for you. Added my freshrss account via gnzl@nc.gnzl.cl’s comment above .

I’m back to the web app. Unfortunately, with the amount of articles in my feed, the Read You app takes forever to load. Plus the web app works very well as is.

Very nice! The Google Reader API integration works with my Miniflux instance, while the Fever integration didn’t.

I really like the ReadYou overall design, but felt the lack of images in the main feed. Is that an option or is it just a thing?

After a barren period , I think there are more clients that feeds these days .

Anything can be a feed with a bit of determination and a little knowhow ;)

What do people have an RSS server for?

ScreaminOctopus@sh.itjust.works on 07 Feb 2024 08:39 next collapse

If you want to share a set of feeds between devices, and sync read/unread, organization, etc.

Someology@lemmy.world on 08 Feb 2024 11:36 next collapse

Convenience.

Lemmy/Reddit feeds, Yotube channels and other video hosting sites, IT/technical blogs and websites, software releases, newspapers, personal blogs… Currently there are 651 feeds in my feed reader. Actually found this post in my RSS feeds.

Did you try アウトルック for more. I guess you have to specify URL.

walden@sub.wetshaving.social on 07 Feb 2024 13:31 next collapse

Nice, I just installed FreshRSS (the LinuxServer version) and got it working with 0.9.12.

I had to use url.com/api/greader.php as the URL in the app. I also had add an API password under my profile, and in Administration -> Authentication I enabled API access.

Imhotep@lemmy.world on 11 Feb 2024 15:04 next collapse

And it works brillantly. No more missing pictures like with the fever api.

This app makes me use RSS again
