Me, personally, I use a custom script based on feedparser (https://pypi.org/project/feedparser/), which grabs feeds and sends new items as an e-mail. But I have no idea how to "sell" the idea of feeds to "normal" people, because what are they supposed to use? As I described above, I use a separate tool to aggregate the feeds I follow and a web browser to read the resulting "river of news". I looked at tools that combine the aggregating and reading functions (snownews, newsbeuter, canto, etc.) but found myself frequently needing to launch my webbrowser to follow a link anyway. So I eventually decided that the reading function belongs in the web browser to begin with, because after all, what I'm reading is web content. But keeping the aggregating function separate makes it easier to run via cron, among other things. |
