CommaFeed delivers the Google Reader experience on your own infrastructure with modern performance characteristics. The Quarkus-based Java backend compiles to native code via GraalVM, achieving sub-second cold starts and 50MB memory footprint — a fraction of traditional JVM RSS readers. Four distinct layouts (title-only, expanded, magazine, and card) with light and dark themes adapt to any reading style, while comprehensive keyboard shortcuts cover navigation, marking, starring, and feed management without touching a mouse. The Fever-compatible API and newly added Google Reader API connect native iOS and Android apps (Reeder, Unread, FeedMe, ReadKit) directly to your instance. Per-feed push notifications through ntfy, Gotify, or Pushover alert you to new articles instantly. The visual query builder for automatic read-marking rules replaces raw expression syntax with an intuitive condition editor supporting title, content, author, and URL matching. OPML import and export enable seamless migration from any RSS service. Custom CSS and JavaScript injection let power users completely restyle the interface, while the browser extension adds one-click subscription from any website. Docker images for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 with H2 embedded database require zero configuration to start. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

BookLore centralizes personal electronic book, audiobook, and comic collections into an organized private media server equipped with automated metadata scrapers and e-reader synchronization. Users can drop EPUB, PDF, CBZ, and MOBI files into a watched BookDrop directory to trigger automated format parsing, background cover retrieval, and staged queue imports. Integrated metadata scrapers query Google Books, Open Library, Goodreads, and Amazon to automatically fill synopsis summaries, author records, publishing dates, and review scores. Dynamic Magic Shelves categorize volumes through custom rule-based filters, author collections, and full-text search indexes across your complete literature catalog. The browser-based reader renders documents with adjustable typography, night modes, audio playback controls, text annotations, and persistent bookmarking. Hardware e-readers and mobile devices connect through native Kobo Store emulation APIs, bidirectional KOReader progress synchronization, and OPDS catalog feeds. Multi-tenant permissions provide each household member with private reading statistics, personalized shelves, email book delivery, and direct send-to-Kindle dispatch. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU AGPLv3 licensed.

With over 17,700 GitHub stars and continuous development since 2015, Calibre-Web has become the definitive self-hosted digital library solution for book enthusiasts who want beautiful web access to their Calibre collections. The responsive Bootstrap 3 interface delivers instant browsing, searching, and filtering across titles, authors, tags, series, book formats, and languages, with custom shelves for organizing personal reading collections. In-browser reading supports EPUB, PDF, TXT, CBR, CBT, CBZ, and DJVU formats with a configurable EPUB reader featuring multiple themes and page location tracking, while one-click email delivery sends books directly to Kindle, Kobo, and other E-Readers without leaving the interface. Native Kobo sync lets Kobo device owners synchronize their entire Calibre library wirelessly, maintaining reading progress and bookmarks across devices. Metadata management includes editing capabilities with automatic metadata downloading from Google Books, Amazon, and other configurable sources, plus eBook format conversion through Calibre binaries for on-the-fly EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, and PDF conversion.

The OPDS catalog feed enables any compliant E-Reader app to browse and download from the library. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Redlib lets you read Reddit without an account, ads, or trackers, through a clean page served from a machine you control. Open any subreddit, user profile, or comment thread and the server fetches the content and relays every image and video itself, so your browser never talks to Reddit directly. Pages need no JavaScript, unless you opt in to HLS video playback with sound. Choose card, clean, or compact layouts, a wide interface, and one of more than a dozen themes, from Dracula and Nord to Gruvbox and Tokyo Night. Post and comment sorting, a search box scoped to the current subreddit, a wiki tab, and subreddit filters help you find and tame your feed. Subscriptions build a personal home page with no login. Spoilers and NSFW previews can be blurred or hidden, and an SFW-only mode blocks mature content for the whole instance. Optional RSS feeds let a feed reader follow subreddits. Links to removed posts open in a configurable undelete viewer. Operators set defaults through environment variables, add an instance banner, discourage search indexing, and route outbound traffic through an HTTP or SOCKS proxy. Settings live in a browser cookie and can be exported or imported between devices. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Websites such as Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, and Stack Overflow pack into single ZIM files, and Kiwix Serve publishes a folder of them as a searchable library that opens in any browser, with no connection to the originals. Point it at individual files, a directory, or a library file, and visitors get a welcome page where they filter books by language, category, or words in the title and description. Each book opens in a built-in viewer without downloading the archive, with toolbar buttons for the library, a random article, and in-book search. Title suggestions appear as you type, and full-text search returns highlighted snippets from indexed books, across several at once when they share a language. OPDS catalogs let reader apps browse and fetch the collection, and the library reloads automatically when its file changes. Admins can swap in a custom welcome page, publish under a URL prefix, hide the library button or search box, block links that leave the archive, and cap connections per visitor. Interface translations cover dozens of languages. Universities, community networks, and home labs get a reference shelf that stays available when the original sites are slow, blocked, or gone, with developer documentation and Q&A always within reach. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Subscribe to a feed and Oksskolten fetches the complete text of every new article, cleans it, and files it as Markdown in a library you can read without leaving the app. About 500 cleanup patterns strip ads, navigation, and tracking, with no per-feed toggles or selectors to maintain. No feed on the site? Auto-discovery goes first, then RSS Bridge, then LLM-inferred CSS selectors, while FlareSolverr gets past bot protection. Every feed is checked on its own schedule, somewhere between every 15 minutes and every 4 hours. Inbox, Read Later, Liked, and Read views keep the queue tidy. Clip any URL as a standalone article. Likes and bookmarks feed an engagement score that shapes search ranking and recommendations. One click summarizes or translates an article through Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI, Ollama, or vLLM, with Google Translate and DeepL as translation engines. Ask the chat questions about your archive, or point Claude Code or Codex at the built-in MCP server to use the same tools. Search forgives typos and covers every stored article. Login works with a password, a passkey, or GitHub. Pick from four layouts and fourteen color themes, import custom themes as JSON, rebind keyboard shortcuts, and keep reading offline as a progressive web app. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Follow every blog, newsletter, and news site you like from one distraction-free inbox with the self-hosted Fusion RSS reader, which has no AI features by design. A left sidebar lists feed groups with unread counts and jumps between Unread, Starred, and All, while the center list shows articles under filter tabs with read and star buttons on every card. Click a card and a right-hand drawer opens with the full sanitized article, a link to the original, and Previous and Next buttons. Press Cmd or Ctrl+K, or the slash key, to search feeds and articles from anywhere. Stay on the keyboard with Google Reader-style keys such as j and k to move, m to mark read, s to star, and g then u to jump to Unread; the question mark lists them all. Add a feed by entering a site address and letting auto-discovery find it, then pick its group, refresh frequency, and HTTP proxy, or suspend it to pause updates. OPML import and export bring subscriptions in or out. Starred articles are saved as snapshots that outlive their source feed. Fever API compatibility lets Reeder, Unread, and FeedMe read the same library. Sign in with a password or OIDC single sign-on, and install the interface as a PWA with Light, Dark, and System themes in eight languages.

Turn any chaotic digital book archive into an autonomous, self-organizing reading portal using Calibre-Web Automated, a digital library manager featuring hands-free format conversions, metadata fetching, and e-reader synchronization. Readers can drop raw ebook files into the automated intake directory and watch the system instantly convert between twenty-eight distinct file types, repair malformed EPUB internal markup, and fetch enriched metadata from Hardcover, Kobo, and ISBN databases. The responsive web reader lets you browse collections, read directly in any desktop or mobile browser, and organize titles into dynamic rules-based Magic Shelves that update automatically. Built-in KOReader sync harmonizes reading progress and bookmarks across mobile devices and e-ink readers, while native OPDS feeds connect seamlessly to your favorite external reader applications. Administrative tools empower you to run hybrid SQL and fuzzy duplicate detection scans, perform batch metadata editing across entire series, enforce cover art changes directly into source files, and auto-dispatch newly ingested books to Kindle or Kobo devices via scheduled email delivery. Granular multi-user controls allow administrators to assign folder permissions, restrict downloads, enforce dark mode themes, and authenticate readers securely through OAuth and OpenID Connect identity providers.

Manga collections tend to get trapped on a single phone; Suwayomi moves the library, downloads, and reading progress onto a server you run, so every browser and device sees the same shelf. In the browser, a built-in reader handles single page, double page, continuous vertical, continuous horizontal, and webtoon layouts, adding image filters, custom keybinds, auto scrolling, and separate desktop and mobile views. Content comes from Mihon (Tachiyomi) extensions, which can be searched, browsed, and sorted into categories, with custom extension stores loaded from JSON or Protobuf indexes. Downloads save chapters as CBZ archives for offline reading, and the server checks the library for new chapters every 12 hours by default, fetching them automatically if you allow it. Progress follows you through MyAnimeList, AniList, and MangaUpdates, a Suwayomi extension and tracker for Mihon, SyncYomi servers, and KOReader. E-reader apps connect over OPDS feeds, scheduled Mihon-compatible backups protect the library, and FlareSolverr or Byparr support handles Cloudflare-protected sources. Public instances can be locked down with basic authentication, a simple login page, or JWT-based UI login, and a PostgreSQL backend, still in beta, can replace the default file store. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MPL-2.0 licensed.

Self-hosted and built around long reading, Omnivore saves articles, newsletters, and PDFs, renders web pages as clean text, remembers your place, and keeps every highlight searchable. Pages arrive from the web app's Add button or from Chrome and Firefox extensions that authenticate with an API key. Newsletters arrive through generated email addresses once an IMAP watcher or another mail bridge is set up. PDFs open in the same reader and accept highlights and notes just like articles. Labels, saved searches, and filters such as subscription:"Name" make a big library easy to slice. The RSS section follows your feeds, lets you add a story to the library or hide it, and can sort stories into topics when an OpenAI key is configured. Custom extractors scroll lazy-loaded pages, follow paginated articles, and strip pop-ups before saving. Rules trigger webhooks when pages are created or updated, which suits automatic labelling and other custom workflows. E-ink reading settings add double-tap page turns and volume-button scrolling, and Android and iOS apps sync the same library. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Consolidate your entire digital library into a self-hosted reading sanctuary with BookOrbit, an open-source media platform that organizes ebooks, audiobooks, comic archives, and research PDFs within a personal private cloud. Readers can enjoy multi-format media directly through responsive browser readers that support EPUB, CBZ, and M4B formats without external browser extensions. The platform synchronizes reading bookmarks, highlights, and completion statuses across web interfaces, Kobo ereaders, and KOReader devices. An automated metadata enrichment engine queries fourteen upstream bibliographic indexes, downloading cover artwork, chapter breakdowns, author biographies, and series taxonomies. The staging workspace allows librarians to inspect incoming files, review suggested metadata revisions, and embed updated tags directly into physical storage archives before shelving. Custom reading dashboards track annual book goals, calculate daily streaks, and plot reading habit radar charts. Multi-user configurations support distinct per-user collections, granular content permissions, and single sign-on authentication through OpenID Connect providers. Power users can export private OPDS feeds to external mobile reading applications or push books directly to connected Kindle hardware.

Curating digital comic archives, serialized manga, and electronic book libraries becomes effortless with Stump, a high-performance reading server that streams media collections over OPDS protocols directly to web browsers and e-reader hardware. Readers can organize extensive collections across CBZ, CBR, PDF, and EPUB formats, utilizing automated scanners that extract embedded ComicInfo XML and Calibre metadata tags. The built-in web reader renders high-resolution comic spreads, continuous vertical webtoon scrolls, and reflowable text with customizable color themes, font scaling, and reading direction toggles. Users can highlight passages, create persistent notes inside EPUB editions, and organize complex franchises into custom reading lists, oneshots, and smart filter collections. Bi-directional synchronization integrates with Kobo and KOReader hardware devices, maintaining page progression and bookmark states across handhelds and desktop sessions. Server administrators can configure multi-user access rules, enforce age restriction thresholds, and provision user-scoped API tokens for automated script pipelines and third-party companion tools. GraphQL and REST endpoints expose the entire catalog structure, allowing media collectors to integrate external metadata scrapers and trigger background library indexing tasks.

Staying on top of hundreds of RSS feeds is impossible when every reader just dumps articles in chronological order. RSSMonster takes a different approach: it evaluates, scores, and prioritizes every article so the signal rises above the noise. The three-pane reading interface automatically marks articles as read when you scroll past them, while the built-in quality scoring engine rates content by freshness, originality, trust, and attention metrics. Compose advanced search expressions using field operators like star:true, quality:>0.6, hot:true, and date filters like @today or @lastweek, then save those expressions as persistent Smart Folders for one-click access to curated views. Semantic event clustering groups related articles across sources so you see one coherent story instead of fifteen duplicates. Connect your favorite mobile client through the Fever API (supporting Reeder for iOS) or the Google Reader API (compatible with News+, FeedMe, Vienna RSS, and ReadKit). The AI chat assistant powered by the Model Context Protocol lets you ask questions about your feed content and get summarized answers. Import your existing subscriptions via OPML, switch between light and dark themes, and install the app as a Progressive Web App for offline reading. On RepoCloud, deploy RSSMonster on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, full data ownership, and persistent storage under the MIT license.

Most RSS readers hand you a pile of headlines and make you do the reading; FeedMe reads first and hands you the pile already digested. It aggregates every feed you configure into one clean, ranked stream, and for each article an LLM writes a short summary you can scan in seconds, with the full original text one tab away when a story earns a deeper look. Sources organize into categories like Tech News, Finance News, Personal Blogs, Company Blogs, Open Source, Research, and Podcasts, and a global search finds stories across all of them. The reader never sleeps on stale content: a built-in cron refreshes feeds and regenerates summaries on your schedule (every three hours by default in Docker), so the page you open in the morning already covers the night. Summaries answer to you, not a vendor: point FeedMe at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint and tune the prompt, input truncation, temperature, and token budget, with output in the languages you choose. There are no accounts, no forced logins, and no app to install; the responsive page works on phone and desktop in light or dark themes. Because the whole application is a static site, it stays fast and cheap to run, and the same build can live on GitHub Pages or Vercel if you ever want a public edition next to your private one.

Manga readers use KamiYomu to build a private, self-hosted library: it fetches chapters from the websites they already follow, archives them locally, and serves everything back through a clean web reader on any device. The discovery flow runs on Crawler Agents, small plugins that teach KamiYomu how a particular source site lists series, chapters, and pages, so searching and fetching metadata happens inside the same interface as reading. Downloads land in a structured local archive, and reading picks up where you left off with history, filters for your library, and weekly views that surface new chapters and fresh releases. When a series is complete, export it as CBZ, PDF, or ZIP and take the files anywhere, no account or cloud library involved. Your e-reader and phone apps join through the built-in OPDS catalog, the same standard used by Moon+ Reader and KyBook, while a Swagger-documented API exposes the collection to your own scripts. Scheduled jobs keep watched series current in the background, checking sources and pulling new chapters without you babysitting tabs.
