I’ve been experimenting with using Nextcloud as my RSS aggregator for the last couple of weeks. It works, but I wouldn’t call it the best option.
The main reason I’m hesitant is the lack of visible development activity in the backend code and the official Android app. When a core feature feels stagnant, it’s hard to trust its long-term future.
There is a notable upside, though: the built‑in RSS server is compatible with third‑party clients like the popular FeedReeder for Linux. This interoperability is a solid feature that keeps it usable even if the native apps lag behind.
My trial is ongoing. If Nextcloud doesn’t feel solid by the end of it, my fallback plan is to set up a dedicated Tiny Tiny RSS server, which has a reputation for being robust and actively maintained.
