Still work in progress - be sure to check for additions/corrections later - but it should be enough to get you going.

I used rss feeds for a while so that I got the headers shwn in the widget. When I clicked and it started to load it I stopped it and changed the address from https to http and got to read it. I used Opera as a browser for reading.Too bad not ofline text based feeds work.

Re: cuteNews - RSS news and podcast aggregator
 
I am trying to get rss feeds working. Not really understanding at all what I'm doing. My idea is to save .opml feed file to sdcard and then point default rss reader to fetch feeds from there.

I found this https://github.com/cudeso/OPML-Security-Feeds which has some nicee lists about cybersecurity but I don't know how to proceed. There is a code window with a code with list of feeds but how to make it usable - I don't know.

Am I trying something not possible. I got feedcircuit to fetch feed to a cache file and I can read them offline now but I would want to see the headers on my desktop in a widget style. I just can't get this done.

Anyone know how I could get the default rss reader to use the feed cache feedcircuit has saved on a folder? Maybe too difficult. Just would like to have a automatically refreshing cybersecurity news heads on my desktop.

Interestingly...
the n8x0 has the bloody best rss feed app.
it is stock ..
the app widget is resizable ..
it is auto scrolling ...(better than ticker tape)...
and you can set the updating ..

Freakin' absolute best designed rss feed reader EVER.

I am just astounded it was never redesigned or ported forward to the n900 or beyond.
It is one of the gems of the n8x0 line.

^ does it handle HTPPS connections?

It seems cutenews handles most SSL connections, but not all.
For some feeds I get "SSL handshake failed" errors when trying to update them.
However:
I can download them OK with my newer wget version.
Now according to post #1 of this thread I can tell cutenews to use wget to get RSS feeds, but it doesn't seem to work - I still get the very same error messages for some feeds.

My ~/.config/cutenews/settings currently looks like this:
Code:

[Browser]
javascriptEnabled=false

[Transfers]
downloadPath=/home/user/MyDocs/Podcasts
customCommand=/usr/bin/wget %f -O -
customCommandEnabled=true

[Logger]
verbosity=3

Does anybody actually use this, and can tell me if this works at all or where I'm going wrong?

I'm also interested on this. I use feedcircuit to download feeds from hackernews and register cybersecurity and for now it is enough for me but other options would be good to have.

Do you using the version from the repos?
Can you give an example RSS feed which do not work?

I switched to cutenews recently after the built in one kept corrupting and many url wouldn't work.

The only thing I miss is images included with articles.
