I just set up something similar for myself with Huginn [0], took a bit to figure out how it works but I've been liking short daily summaries. This definitely would have been faster/prettier though.

Would you perhaps share how you did it with an example? I really like the concept of Huginn, but haven't had the inclination to play with it further myself; setting something up for my own sources' summaries would be a good way to start, I guess.

Sure. I started with Reddit, for a very basic setup you'll need:

1. A website agent that parses the Reddit JSON api (just add .json to a subreddit URL)

2. A trigger agent to filter based on your criteria (ex. minimum 50 points) and transform the JSON to a nicer message

3. An email digest agent to bundle the messages into a single email

Each one of these feed into the next so you go from the raw JSON to a nice email. Then you can easily just feed more things into the email digest agent to add more to it.

Let me know if you have any other questions, my email's in my profile. It was pretty confusing for me to get started but I'm getting the hang of it now.

What I do is I use a WordPress I stallation to consume RSS and Email Newsletters they have plug-ins that slurp rss feeds (I use feedwordpress) And I use the Email to Post feature built in to WordPress to consume newsletters..

Now that rss feeds I like and newsletters I like are in wordpress as a post.. I have a plug in that sends an email digest of what's posted...

What I like about my ghetto setup is that I can easily search and get "related" articles..

Never really had the right mood to set up Huginn, maybe because my own system is not that bad (a bunch a Telegram bots and channels, pointing to HN and some subreddits)

Author of Huginn here. I'm so glad it's working well for you, that's exactly what I use it for as well.
