Is RSSHub actively maintained?
RSSHub is under active development: 2326 commits landed over the last 11 months, averaging roughly 229 commits a month in the most recent quarter.
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.
Of the 26 projects we track in Feed Readers, RSSHub ranks #3 by health score — in the top quarter of its category.
What RSSHub actually does
RSSHub is an extensible feed generator that creates standard RSS feeds from websites and platforms that do not natively provide them. It turns content from sources like social media profiles and university pages into structured feeds that you can consume in your preferred reader. The project is open-source under the MIT licence and built with Node.js.
Best fit: It is a good fit if you want to centralise updates from modern web platforms that lack native syndication feeds into a single feed reader.
Worth knowing: Target websites frequently change their layouts or implement anti-scraping measures, which can cause specific feed routes to break and require frequent updates.
Deployment notes
You can deploy it using Docker, and you will typically need to configure a reverse proxy in front of it to handle TLS termination and manage external web traffic.
