Show HN: RSSPub – A self-hosted Rust app to turn RSS feeds into a daily ePub (github.com)

This is a simple web application for personal use that some of you might find useful. It's essentially a serverless version of Calibre's "Fetch News" feature, designed to run on free/hobby server tiers.(Koyeb/Render etc).

It compiles the last 24 hours of your chosen RSS feed articles into a single ebook. Users can download ebooks either via OPDS or send to ereader via email method.

Really nice project! I was looking for something like this just a couple of days ago.

> designed to run on free/hobby server tiers.(Koyeb/Render etc)

Can you elaborate on this part? Koyeb doesn't seem to have a free tier. I got the docker container running on Render but all configuration is gone after a restart.

koyeb has a hobby tier (or at least had before they joined mistral,0.1Vcpu ,512MB). If you want to save config after restart you have to mount volume with the following path <hostPAth>:/app/db.

run.claw.cloud also provides free credits and option to mount volume,so you can try that
