Hello everyone! I've been wanting an RSS aggregator styled like old-school reddit for a while now and I finally got around to sitting down and writing it this week.

Fair warning - it has very few features and probably many bugs. If you find one, please let me know! I will be eternally grateful.

I had a black page with JavaScript disabled. You should at least display a message "please enable JavaScript".

Thank you so much! I completely agree. I meant to add this at some point and it must have slipped my mind.

How do you add a subscription?

[lostqubit]

If you submit a url to an RSS or Atom feed on the account page, the site will generate a page for the channel, take you there, and automatically create a subscription for you.

Or, you can click on the channel name underneath the title of an entry (Published by ___) and there should be a Subscribe/Unsubscribe button near the top of the page.

Do added subscriptions by one person show up in the global feed for everyone?

[lostqubit]

Nobody can see which channels you're subscribed to but, yes, entries from all of the channels that have been entered into the website show up in the global feed.

tos ? porn rss?

I'd like to have something like this where the up down votes started to put people into groups so that tribe A's likes were shared and tribe A's likes wouldn't affect the view of Tribe B, tribe C doesn't get affected by A or B and so on.

That's exactly how my project https://linklonk.com works.

When you upvote an item, you connect to other people who upvoted that item. When you downvote - you disconnect from those who upvoted it. So those who upvote useful content for you, get more weight in your recommendations.

Coincidentally, I'm doing a show HN post for it today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28405643, so will be happy to answer any questions there (instead of hijacking this post).

OP, does EvalRSS list content in reverse-chronological order? Any plans to prioritize content? What I do with LinkLonk is: the more items for a feed you upvote - the more other items from that feed are prioritized. Also, RSS readers have a notion of read/unread status. What are your thoughts on that? Is reverse-chronological ordering supposed to help the users distinguish unread content from read content?

Consider adding the number of comments each item in the list has. I added a test comment on https://www.evalrss.com/comments/9dcbaacb-96b7-4eec-8959-ba6... and there is no indication of that comment in the list.

As long as it won't land me in prison for having it on my site, go wild. You can use the site for whatever you like.

And it's an interesting idea! I'm not sure my unsupervised learning skills are good enough to be able to do this without creating some grotesque filter bubbles. If you have some ideas, please feel free to send me an email! I'd love to learn more.

Neat!
