Is Kriss Feed actively maintained?
Development is ongoing. The repository recorded 5 commits over the same window, and the last three months alone account for 1 of them.
No tagged releases are published, so there is no stable version to pin to — you would deploy from the default branch or a container image built from it.
Kriss Feed ranks #19 of 26 tracked feed readers projects. Several better-maintained options exist in the same category — they are listed below.
What Kriss Feed actually does
Kriss Feed is a lightweight, self-hosted feed reader written in PHP. It is designed to aggregate and display syndication feeds such as RSS or Atom in a minimalist interface.
Best fit: This is a suitable choice if you want a basic, low-resource feed aggregator running on standard PHP hosting without heavy dependencies.
Worth knowing: Development activity is low and the lack of recent tagged releases suggests potential maintenance risks for long-term usage.
Deployment notes
You will typically need a standard web server like Apache or Nginx configured with PHP, along with persistent storage for your feed subscriptions and read states.
