Fraidycat is an app (and browser extension) for following people across many platforms - blogs, wikis, YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram and more - from a single local page. Instead of a chronological firehose feed, it shows an overview of who is active, organized by tags and priority check intervals.

Use cases

  • follow blogs and social media accounts from one page
  • track twitter and youtube accounts without algorithms
  • monitor who is active across multiple platforms
  • replace rss reader with a recency-based follow overview
  • self-host a personal feed aggregator
  • follow people on social media privately via tor

When to choose

  • you want a low-noise overview of activity across many sites rather than a full inbox feed
  • you prefer organizing follows by tags and check frequency instead of algorithmic feeds
  • you want a local, privacy-respecting tool that can run over Tor

When to avoid

  • you need a traditional chronological feed reader or full post inbox
  • you need team features, cloud sync accounts, or mobile apps
  • you need a project with frequent updates - development has slowed and v2 is still unreleased
