Open Source News Aggregators Software
News Aggregators collect articles, social media posts, and web updates from multiple sources into a single interface. These tools organize RSS and Atom feeds to prevent the need for visiting individual websites manually. This type of software serves readers who want to curate their own information streams without relying on proprietary algorithms. Self-hosting these apps ensures that your reading lists and filtered interests remain private. You can manage your news consumption and feed generators on your own hardware to avoid external tracking.
This page lists 16 open source tools in the News Aggregators category. The most popular are RSSHub, Glance and FreshRSS. Most use the AGPL-3.0 or MIT license, and 15 offer an official Docker image.
