I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks all! I’ve got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!

    FreshRSS, news and websites fetched your way. You can even create feeds for websites that don’t provide one

      Quick question, don’t want to highjack the thread. This looks interesting, but I don’t understand why I couldn’t just install it on my regular laptop running fedora. Why does it need it’s own server?

        Well you can install it locally and get the web interface via localhost, but if it’s a proper server you can access the news from your sources from anywhere and you can also use 3rd party apps in your phone to get a different interface via the API

          FreshRSS is just a PHP app so you don’t even need a VPS - you could even install it in a regular shared hosting account.

          Do you have any recommendations for 3rd party apps? I did a quick search but couldn’t find any apps built for FreshRSS

          Oh ok thanks. I do like the idea of access from anywhere… I’m guessing a VPN would be needed on the server and phone? Or is this a whole big thing?

            Check out tailscale, the best tool ever to access a server without opening ports or doing hard stuff

                  Cool, I’ve heard of it but never really looked into it. I’ll give it a try.

            It depends on how secure you want to get with it. You could just host it with any of the hosting providers and have it public - or you could have it behind a vpn on that server

            If you were hosting it at home, you’d likely want to restrict access to behind a vpn. No sense advertising your network is any more interesting than it needs to be

      This is exactly what I need. Let me do some research on this.

      Hey I got FreshRSS self hosted and everything is up and running smooth. Only thing is, for the websites without RSS… how did you get the RSS for those?
