@forst @Daojoan oh they do have lots of those, and if not its super easy to self-host as well (got a bunch for mini websites and customized bridges myself).

@forst @Daojoan Are you familiar with this project? https://rss-bridge.org

Basically a PHP framework where you can easily write bridges that scrape a webpage and turn them into a feed, caching and everything else is already managed by the framework.

@forst @Daojoan are those extractors custom? Or do you contribute those to RSS-Bridge or similar projects?

@forst @Daojoan On Android FeedMe does the same, you can even set it as a default for selected feeds in your subscriptions. Some of them are also quite good a circumventing paywalls

@forst @Daojoan I use two solutions for this more and more:

1. Some readers like NetNewsWire have a builtin readability mode. They take the URL of the RSS entry, run it through reader mode and present it as if it were the RSS entry itself. Works fantastic even on feeds that only push a URL and no text at all.
2. I coded a read-it-later service for myself that extracts entries and pushes them to a feed I subscribe to, it’s here: https://github.com/thefranke/rss-librarian
