Thoughts on rss.app? (rss.app)

8 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm trying to build up my feed using rss, but some sites just don't have it or doesn't let me filter through it as thoroughly as I want to.

I found this website, rss.app, that seems to be the solution to these problems, but I never really heard of this site before. Is there anything I should know about it?

I'm asking because the site requires you to make an account there to use it which asks for your name and email address and I don't want some random company spamming my email.

Isn't it a paid service? I think you get 7 days free trial.

Yup. Its seems like it.

Funny how any mention of it being a paid service is only at the bottom of the page.

Does anyone know of any alternatives?

I'm hesitant to recommend but https://fed.brid.gy/ makes feeds from websites that may or may not have RSS feeds. It works well with Tumblr for example.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Tumblr blogs all have feeds.

RSS-Bridge is awesome

There are public instances, but I think you could even self host it.

Yeah, I set it up to test it out and then I got an email saying I only had 3 days left. LOL
