Good fit for Minimalists who want a fast, opinionated RSS backend and prefer a third-party iOS/Android reader over a built-in UI.
Weak at Magazine layouts and AI summarization — Miniflux is text-first and intentionally feature-narrow.

Replaces these SaaS
- Feedly · RSS feed reader
Run the official `miniflux/miniflux:latest` and `postgres:16` images via docker-compose. Export Feedly subscriptions as OPML (Settings → Import / Export → Export to OPML). In Miniflux: Settings → Import → upload OPML — categories and starred items transfer. Use Miniflux's API (or the Fever API compatibility layer) to plug in any third-party reader app like Reeder or NetNewsWire.
