Why isn’t there one service that combines rss reader and bookmarking?

    I use Reeder (https://reederapp.com/) with FreshRSS (https://freshrss.org/), and there is a read-it-later option. Here I can add URLs from the browser and articles from the reader. This works quite well also as some sort of bookmarking. I’ve used bookmarks mostly as a read-it-later tool. 😅

    Surely that’s just FreshRSS with a plugin like Wallabag or Readeck. I use FreshRSS and Readeck for precisely this. One-click bookmarking (and archiving of the page, too).

        Have you tried favouriting the post using the star button? I’ve just tried it and it does work as a read-it-later function even if you mark as read.

      I want to make an rss reader app at some point because I have a lot of sources but really struggle telling which are quality. I want an upvote/downvote (or smth more granular) system so I could pull up the page with stats for the source and see how well it works out for me. However, as of now, I have neither the skill or time to develop it, and I’m also already working on a different app which is a big time sink by itself.

    Can someone please explain RSS to me? I just don’t get it and I’ve been using Firefox since it was Netscape Navigator 2.0

      Someone can publish a list of updates in a computer-friendly XML format at a given URL.

      An RSS client polls it periodically for updates, maybe notifies a the client’s user when new updates show up, tracks which they’ve viewed.

      Some people use it to provide notifications when their blog has new entries. Some to notify about new podcast episodes. I’ve seen it used to provide notifications of new BitTorrents being started on a tracker.

      Explain how it works or what it is?

      It’s just a feed you can follow (think of following someone on IG or twitter). You’ll get notified about the new content on that feed.

      You can subscribe to all the feeds that are interesting to you and now you have a place to read the all and get notified when something new is out.

          Imagine you had a feed like Lemmy’s home feed, where things from the places you follow show up in a single feed you can look through and open the items you want to read.

          Sites used to publish an RSS feed of everything they posted. GReader was the king like 10 (omfg, 20?) years ago. They they fucking killed it like they do with all their good, non-mail/YouTube projects.

    Dunno if it is what you are looking for, but there is Linkwarden. It is primarily a bookmark/archiver (Saves a copy of the page), however, it has the ability to subscribe to feeds and will automatically bookmark anything in that feed.

      @xenthar Yeaa I did check it out… Thats the closest I think. Even Karakeep has a similar feature. And Newsblur has the ability to bookmark anything I heard.

    I use Karakeep, which is a bookmark manager with an RSS feed option, but you need to add some auto tags or your feed will just become a mess - it saves ALL the links from RSS feeds you add.

    Probably not an answer you’d like to see: I am using FeedFlow which supports bookmarking articles, having FreshRSS as the source of truth.

    Do you mean bookmarking web pages? Vivaldi browser has rss, email and the usual bookmarking functions.
