I’m looking for a self-hosted alternative for Omnivore. To keep it short and sweet, I’m looking for an app that I can subscribe to RSS feeds from and maintain Reader Mode-esque archives of news articles and interesting things I’ve read. Obsidian integration would be nice but is not a priority; however, the ability to save from Android is a must.

Hoarder is something I’ve recently spun up on my home server but despite looking great, it doesn’t do what I’d like it to do. Clicking on an article doesn’t present me with a Reader Mode archive, it takes me to the actual webpage; I have to click on something else to get the cached version (and even then, it doesn’t format things in the way I’d like). I feel this order of operations should be reversed. On the mobile app, you can’t even access the cached version.

I’ve used Wallabag before, but disliked the mobile interface. I wasn’t self-hosting, however, so I’m not sure the difficulty level for it. Barring finding anything better, I’ll likely try and self-host Wallabag.

Shiori looks fantastic but I’d rather not resort to using Termux on my Android phone to share content. No mobile app makes it difficult.

Any suggestions?

SOLVED

Following numerous suggestions, I spun up a FreshRSS container and will be looking into both Shiori (which has a third-party mobile app) and Linkwarden. Thanks, everyone!

    I settled on Raindrop.io which is free but I paid to support it ($30 a year I think). I had to change my workflow slightly and the Obsidian integration is not as great as Omnivore’s, but it wasn’t a pain. The browser integration is really good and I prefer it to Omnivore’s. It supports RSS and has a decent mobile app.

    Overall I think it’s a decent replacement and I’m happy.

    I tried Wallabag but the Obsidian integration was poor and Wallabag felt unloved recycle by extension made me question it’s future (which is unfair given my limited time with it). There was a trial which was not enough time for me to evaluate it comfortably.
