Is Tiny Tiny RSS actively maintained?
Development is ongoing. The repository recorded 671 commits over the same window, and the last three months alone account for 111 of them.
Activity is accelerating: the last quarter carried 136% more commits than the one before it.
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.
Tiny Tiny RSS ranks #9 of 26 in Feed Readers, placing it mid-table for maintenance activity.
What Tiny Tiny RSS actually does
Tiny Tiny RSS is a web-based application designed to aggregate and read RSS and Atom news feeds. It runs on your own infrastructure, allowing you to collect and manage subscriptions to various web feeds from a central interface. As a self-hosted feed reader, it keeps your reading habits and subscription lists under your direct control.
Best fit: It is a solid fit for technical users who want to move away from commercial, cloud-based news readers and prefer hosting their own data.
Worth knowing: The project relies on a rolling development model without tagged releases, which can make tracking specific versions or stability milestones less predictable.
Deployment notes
Because it is built with PHP and packaged for Docker, you will typically need to provision persistent storage for your database and feeds, alongside a standard reverse proxy for TLS termination.
