Selfhosted

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.

Omnivore Alternatives? [SOLVED FOR ME] (leminal.space)

I'm looking for a self-hosted alternative for Omnivore. To keep it short and sweet, I'm looking for an app that I can subscribe to RSS feeds from and maintain Reader Mode-esque archives of news articles and interesting things I've read. Obsidian integration would be nice but is not a priority; however, the ability to save from Android is a must.

Hoarder is something I've recently spun up on my home server but despite looking great, it doesn't do what I'd like it to do. Clicking on an article doesn't present me with a Reader Mode archive, it takes me to the actual webpage; I have to click on something else to get the cached version (and even then, it doesn't format things in the way I'd like). I feel this order of operations should be reversed. On the mobile app, you can't even access the cached version.

I've used Wallabag before, but disliked the mobile interface. I wasn't self-hosting, however, so I'm not sure the difficulty level for it. Barring finding anything better, I'll likely try and self-host Wallabag.

Shiori looks fantastic but I'd rather not resort to using Termux on my Android phone to share content. No mobile app makes it difficult.

Any suggestions?

SOLVED

Following numerous suggestions, I spun up a FreshRSS container and will be looking into both Shiori (which has a third-party mobile app) and Linkwarden. Thanks, everyone!

I just spun up a FreshRSS container and it is working flawlessly for that purpose so far. I appreciate the suggestions.
