What is a service you host you never knew you needed? (k.fe.derate.me)

I think everybody on here is constantly keeping an eye out for what to host next. Sometimes you spinup something which chugs along nicely but sometimes you find out you've been missing out.

For me it's not very refreshing or new: Paperless-ngx. Never thought I would add all my administration to it. But it's great. I probably can't find the thing I need, but I should have a record of every mail or letter I've gotten. Close second is Wanderer. But I would like to have a little bit more features like adding recorded routes to view speed and compare with previous walks. But that's not what it is intended for.

What is that service for you?

What's the extension for? FreshRSS can fetch contents natively.

The extension is to get the rss link to paste into five filters

Five filters takes the link and gets all the images and all that then makes a new rss link that you give to fresh rss.

When I tried just fresh rss a lot of the sites I tried wouldn't get me images or it would be just the headline and I would have to click the link and go to the actual site to read the article

I'm still not sure that filter thing is necessary. FreshRSS can fetch content and images using the CSS selector of the website. You may want to check out the Advanced section in their documentation: https://freshrss.github.io/FreshRSS/en/users/04_Subscriptions.html#retrieve-a-truncated-feed-from-within-freshrss

Anyway, whatever works for you :)

Is it pretty easy to do? Does it give you a preview of what you'll get?
