TimyRSS looks interesting, noticed they have extension support (freshRSS seems to too) so marine that’s the best route to what I want

It looks like there are already some extensions that do a bit of what I’m looking for

https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions

I’ll have to look at the API to see if I can add tagging or something.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking of.

What I’m envisioning is articles group by topic (international, tech, etc.) and something that groups articles on say Ukraine like Google News does.

A lot of RSS is like an email inbox and I want a news feed.

That looks great

The list of related software they use is also very handy

I think what I want is RSS plus categorization, like a Google News type app.

RSS alone can be kind of overwhelming.

But maybe I can build this on RSS with ollamma.

I have big regrets buying a WD MyCloud device.

It sucks. Massively sucks. I have it robot nightly or else it stops working.

Wish I’d started with a Synology.

My current work is going through this

They dropped an open system we used but the team managing the new one is so bureaucratic and disconnected from the people actually doing work it’s ridiculous.

They reject every proposal/change unless it’s 100% perfect. I had a project delayed by four weeks because I didn’t end single line docstrings with periods. They didn’t review the substance of the pr, they just commented on the docstrings and stopped as if the rest had no merit. It was two weeks between review cycles, so it took three cycles to actually fix what could have been one.

That whole team is just clearly a make work program. They nitpick and bike shed on every issue. But they aggressively document all the make work they do so they look super busy and important to the execs.

I just want to get work done, but instead it’s a Sisyphean effort.

You’re coming in loud and clear here in the great white North!

How was the process of setting up self hosting?

There are two in the top corners at least

That actually seems attractive to me, but I’m unsure where I stand yet. It’s pricey, I just want a box I can put in the basement and then connect everything to over wifi.

They can’t swipe your password if it’s wrong

They could of course enter it on the target website and see it’s wrong though, so this only works against the crappiest phishing attempts

I’ve adopted a policy of always ebetering my password wrong the first time.

It started by accident.
