# Miniflux

> Miniflux (v2.3.4, October 2026) is a minimalist feed reader you host yourself. It is a single Go binary that needs PostgreSQL, and it reads RSS, Atom and JSON Feed, imports OPML, fetches full articles, strips trackers, and has regex filters, keyboard shortcuts and a mobile-friendly web UI. It connects to 25+ services (Wallabag, Notion, Telegram and others), sends webhooks, and works with Fever and Google Reader API apps. It has no AI summaries. Mainly tested on Linux. Apache-2.0.
