Got the suggestion from a comment yesterday (I’ll link when I find it) and I’d been using FreshRSS on it’s own for a long time. Morss is a godsend for feeds that like to give you only the headline. It’s also especially awesome for the Hackernews and Lobsters feeds because it will expand the posted links for you which I appreciate a great deal. Hosting it takes like 3 seconds and it’s so worth it.
Admittedly, I don’t need anything outside of the full content of articles so I have no insight into the more advanced usage. I’m curious to see if others chime in to respond to this. Who knows, maybe I’ll increase the complexity of my RSS setup
