   The unique RSS/website reader

   Lenns.io is more than a RSS reader. It's a website reader as it can follow posts by titles in cases when there isn't an exposed RSS feed.

   My favourite part is setting priorities per source and category as well as limiting the number of posts per source. That way, a single source cannot overflow my feed.

• Ask HN: Show me your half baked project

  Https://lenns.io/ - it may not be exactly ready for prime time (lacking communication & marketing); however, it's been fully functional and my RSS reader of choice for the last 2 years.

It supports tracking articles by headlines in those cases when a blog or a website doesn't support RSS. Plus a few other goodies, like assigning priorities to your feeds (and topics) and limiting the number of posts per source. Enjoy. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• It's Time for an RSS Revival

  Have you considered an RSS reader that "reads" non-RSS publications? That's what I've tried to do with Lenns.io. You can subscribe to any blog/website, regardless of their RSS support. Then, if they don't expose an RSS feed - the website's titles are followed. That works with about 90% success. I'd be happy if you give it a go https://lenns.io.

• Can RSS feeds be made of anything with a link?

  Upstract has been doing this for many sources which don't have a feed for like 20 years, so I guess yes. Readers can choose what to cache, no definitive answer. Source: about 1 year ago
