https://video.elfhosted.com/videos/watch/f2d3b41e-aaab-4c1e-aed0-8f2c8b5eef3a FreshRSS is an RSS reader: blogs, news, podcasts and YouTube channels in one reading list. Hosted FreshRSS is ready to read, nothing to install. FreshRSS hosting on ElfHosted: we run the FreshRSS project's RSS reader for you, keep it updated, and back it up daily, with restores you can do yourself. There's no database to set up and nothing to install: open it and it's ready, behind your ElfHosted login, at a secure address your phone apps can reach. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if FreshRSS goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. Rather talk to a person? When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated, family-friendly server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. What is FreshRSS? An open-source RSS reader and feed aggregator. It gathers blogs, news sites, podcasts, subreddits and YouTube channels into one reading list, with no algorithm and no ads: the feeds are the ones you chose, in the order they were posted. It keeps your place on every device, and many phone RSS reader apps connect through the Google Reader API with their own app password, separate from your ElfHosted login. Moving from another reader? Export your feed list as OPML, import it here, and your categories and feeds come with it. FreshRSS is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. FreshRSS is open source, built by the FreshRSS project and its community; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the FreshRSS project. You can support it on Liberapay.
