I’m always a little torn on projects like this.

On the one hand, I know a few people who have hosted tt-rss and the software worked very well for them and their needs.

On the other hand, software whose maintainers have fascist tendencies, or are at best super edge-lords, and which maintains a culture in the developers and community that’s just super toxic is not something I ever wish to support or be associated with.

I have similar feelings on the hyperland project, or suckless software. What i have personally settled on is to not touch the software myself, and give a slight disclaimer when recommending it to others.

I suppose unmaintained can be added to the disclaimer for this one now. At least we have a plethora of very nice alternatives in the rss space with projects like freshrss, miniflux, and nextcloud news.

You are literally on Lemmy. The project owner’s views are well-known.

They’re the exact opposite of a fascist…

But just* as extremist…

• Approximately. How is this sort of thing measured objectively?

Political “extremity” can’t be measured objectively.
