Tiny Tiny RSS

Self-Hosted

Open-source self-hosted RSS feed reader with full data control

Overview

Tiny Tiny RSS is a self-hosted RSS/Atom feed aggregator that lets you manage and read feeds privately. You control your data by hosting it on your own server (via Docker, LAMP stack, or other methods). Features include feed categorization, tagging, advanced filtering, offline reading, and a mobile-friendly interface. Extensible via plugins for third-party integrations, theme customization, and more—ideal for privacy-focused users who want to avoid cloud-based feed readers.

Frequently Asked Questions

? Is Tiny Tiny RSS hard to install?

It varies by skill level. Docker images simplify setup (one-line commands for deployment), and there are guides for LAMP/LEMP stacks. Beginners will find Docker the easiest path, while advanced users can customize installations with additional plugins or configurations.

? Is it a good alternative to Feedly?

Absolutely for privacy-focused users. Unlike Feedly (cloud-based), Tiny Tiny RSS lets you self-host, so no third party accesses your feed data. It offers core features like categorization and filtering plus extensibility Feedly lacks (e.g., custom plugins) for power users.

? Is it completely free?

Yes! Tiny Tiny RSS is open-source under the AGPLv3 license. There are no licensing fees—you only pay for server hosting if you choose a paid VPS or cloud provider (self-hosting on your own hardware is free).
