My Personal RSS Setup

This repository serves as the central source of truth for my online content consumption. It contains a collection of my news subscriptions, newsletter feeds, and custom-generated RSS routes for things like Gwern's posts that don't have RSS feeds.

Note: This is a work in progress that still needs further pruning and organization.

Subscriptions

I read these feeds using NetNewsWire on both macOS and iOS.

• 📄 SUBSCRIPTIONS.md: A standalone file with the list of feeds.
• 🔗 all-feeds.opml: The master OPML file. You can import this directly into any RSS reader.

How It Works

This setup combines standard feeds with custom scraping to ensure I can subscribe to everything in one place.

• Standard Feeds: Most standard websites.
• Substack Newsletters: Since Substack doesn't provide an easy export, I scraped my subscription URLs and generated the OPML entries from them (all Substack newsletters have an RSS feed available by appending "/feed" to the newsletter URL, e.g., razisyed.substack.com becomes razisyed.substack.com/feed).
• Custom Feeds: I use a custom RSSHub instance to generate RSS feeds for websites that don't support them natively (e.g., Gwern.net, BBC).

Automation

I use a helper script to keep this repository in sync with my NetNewsWire "iCloud" account.

If you are on macOS and have NetNewsWire installed, you can run:

./sync-rss.sh

This script will:

1. Export your current feeds from NetNewsWire (iCloud account).
2. Regenerate the SUBSCRIPTIONS.md table.
3. (Optional) Commit the changes to git.

Repository Structure

• all-feeds.opml: The master subscription file.
• RSSHub/: The source code for my custom RSSHub instance (deployed to Vercel).
• routes/: Clean backups of my custom route files.
• sync-rss.sh: Automation script for syncing and documentation generation.

Advanced: Deploying Custom Feeds

My custom feeds are powered by a Vercel-deployed RSSHub instance. To update them:

1. Make changes to files in RSSHub/.
2. Deploy via Vercel CLI:

   cd RSSHub
   vercel deploy --prod
