About Miniflux
Miniflux is a minimal feed reader for following websites through RSS and Atom. It focuses on reading articles with few distractions.
What it does
Miniflux collects updates from the sites you subscribe to and shows them in one list of unread items. You can move around with keyboard shortcuts, and the layout keeps fonts and colours chosen for comfortable reading on a screen. When a feed only includes a short summary, Miniflux can fetch the original article for you. The project avoids extra features and tracking, so the interface stays focused on the content. It runs as a single program on your server, and it can also be used through a paid hosted account.
Key features
- Keyboard shortcuts for fast navigation
- Fetch full article text from summary feeds
- Removes pixel trackers and tracking parameters
- Single program with Docker and package options
- Paid hosted option available
Who it's for
Readers who follow many blogs and news sites and want a quiet place to read them. It suits people who are comfortable running a small server, or who would rather pay a yearly fee for hosting.
Pricing and good to know
Miniflux is open source under the Apache 2.0 licence. Self-hosting costs only your server time. A paid hosted option is offered for a yearly fee and includes a trial period. Feeds that publish only summaries need the full content fetch feature to read whole articles, so check how each site delivers its updates before you subscribe.
