Stringer is a self-hosted, anti-social RSS feed reader built with Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, and Hotwire. It offers keyboard shortcuts, multi-language support, and a Fever API clone for mobile client compatibility.
Use cases

- read news feeds with keyboard shortcuts
- sync RSS feeds to mobile apps via Fever API
- deploy a personal feed reader on Heroku or a VPS
- run a private RSS reader in Docker
When to choose
- you want a simple, distraction-free self-hosted RSS reader
- you need Fever API compatibility for mobile clients
- you prefer a lightweight reader with no recommendations or ML
- you want a Heroku-deployable feed reader
When to avoid
- you want social sharing or feed recommendations
- you need a hosted service with no server maintenance
- you don't want to run Ruby/PostgreSQL infrastructure
