Keep Feedbro, or make your own?
Keep it
Feedbro is free, so making your own would save you nothing.
And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces.
What you could make
- RSS reader and highlights: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
What this rests on. Feedbro’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Feedbro?
Feedbro is a feed reader that runs inside the browser as an extension. It reads RSS, Atom and RDF feeds and some social sites, organizes them in a folder tree, and applies rules to incoming articles. Rules can hide, tag, highlight or raise a desktop notification for matching articles.
Worth knowing
- It is a browser extension only; the site names no desktop or mobile app.
- No cloud sync service is described on the pages read, so feeds live in the browser.
- Some listed social sources, such as Google+, may no longer exist as services.
- The site names Chrome, Vivaldi, Edge, Brave and Firefox, not Safari.
Key features
- Rule engine
- Rules run when an article arrives or is viewed and can match on title, author or content with words, fragments or regular expressions.
- Rule actions
- A matching rule can show a desktop notification, play a sound, hide or delete the article, add a tag, star it or highlight words.
- Folders and tags
- Feeds sit in a drag-and-drop folder tree, and articles take custom tags with autocomplete.
- Full-article conversion
- A built-in engine can turn partial feed articles into full text; it is switched on per feed in its properties.
- Feed autodiscovery and OPML
- Find the feeds on the current tab with two clicks, and import or export subscriptions as OPML.
