Show HN: Collie – A minimal RSS reader just for you 2 by parksb | 0 comments on Hacker News. Collie is a minimal RSS feed reader application running on your desktop. With Collie, you can subscribe to multiple RSS/Atom feeds to organize your own news feed, receive a real-time notification when a new item is added to the subscribed feed, and save the items to read again or later. All you need is a local machine and the Internet. No virtual machine, no cloud infrastructures, no always-on database, and no account registration with privacy information required. I've been getting tech news from HackerNews, Lobsters, etc. on Twitter (It's X now, but I'll keep calling it Twitter anyway), but many of them have been terminated due to changes in Twitter's API policy. I went from place to place: Bluesky, Mastodon, Slack, and newsletter. However, I couldn't settle anywhere. The social media services such as Bluesky and Mastodon had too many unnecessary features as news feed.
