Recently, I made the switch from FreshRSS to Miniflux, and I wanted to share my experience with the Nostr community.

Why Miniflux?

Miniflux caught my attention as a simpler alternative to FreshRSS. Don't get me wrong, FreshRSS is a powerful tool, but sometimes less is more. Here's why Miniflux has won me over:

  1. Minimalist Design: Miniflux strips away the unnecessary, focusing on what matters most - your feeds.
  2. Speed: With its lightweight architecture, Miniflux is blazing fast, even with a large number of feeds.
  3. Third-party App Support: This is where Miniflux really shines. The ecosystem of third-party apps is robust and growing.
  4. Easy Self-Hosting: If you're into self-hosting like me, Miniflux makes it a breeze.
  5. Vim Keybindings: As a Vim enthusiast, I absolutely love that the Miniflux web client comes with default Vim keybindings. This feature significantly speeds up my workflow and makes navigation a breeze.

Third-Party Apps: The Icing on the Cake

Speaking of third-party apps, I've been experimenting with MiniFlutt (https://github.com/docmarty84/miniflutt). It's a Flutter-based mobile client for Miniflux that brings the simplicity of the web version to your pocket.
MiniFlutt is just one example of the diverse app ecosystem surrounding Miniflux. Whether you prefer mobile, desktop, or web-based clients, chances are you'll find something that suits your needs.

Final Thoughts

If you're looking for a no-frills RSS reader that does its job exceptionally well, give Miniflux a try. The transition from FreshRSS was smooth, I was able to import all my feeds from an OPML file and I haven't looked back since.
Remember, the best RSS reader is the one that fits your workflow. For me, Miniflux's simplicity and third-party app support make it a winner. What's your go-to RSS solution?
