FreshRSS
Read what you chose to read
An RSS reader that fetches on a schedule and keeps everything, so a site you follow is a list of articles in the order they were published rather than whatever a feed ranked highest today. Speaks the Google Reader API, so most mobile RSS apps connect to it directly.

freshrssInstalling it
Open the dashboard, find it in the App Store and press Install. Or from a terminal on the box:
sudo homebox install freshrss
Where to open it
| Service | Port | First login |
|---|---|---|
| FreshRSS | :8070 | A setup wizard on the first visit creates the admin account. |
Open it at your box's address with that port — the dashboard links to it directly once it is running.
Good to know
- The setup wizard on the first visit creates the admin account and picks the database — SQLite is the right answer for one person
- Turn on the API under Settings then Authentication to use Reeder, FeedMe or NetNewsWire against it
- It refreshes on a cron inside the container; a feed that looks stuck is usually the site's feed, not FreshRSS
