Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/1156

Hi,
I would like to use Hoarder as an RSS client.
Is it possible to set a tag for the feed name in an RSS feed entry? Then I can filter it as SMartlist and see the entries from the different feeds.
I have already tried the following under settings at the AI prompt:
“If bookmarks come from an RSS feed, please add the name of the feed as a tag. No further tags should be added.”
Unfortunately it did not work.

Thx.
Regards
Hermann

Yes
I am also thinking about

  • FreshRSS VS Karakeep

FreshRSS can not store arbitrary links/sites at the moment
Karakeep is missing read/unread functionality and the possibility to treat rss-source different to manually stored stuff

My goal is to use one service for both RSS reading and storing bookmarks

Shameless plug for my script: https://github.com/thiswillbeyourgithub/freshrss_to_karakeep

It uses two api clients I made: https://github.com/thiswillbeyourgithub/karakeep_python_api/ and https://github.com/thiswillbeyourgithub/freshrss_python_api/

I think that with some vibe coding you can probably have a usable setup.

For example you can upload all freshrss to karakeep. Then make it so that once you archive it in karakeep it gets "read" in freshrss or whatever

If i fully understood, my use-case is different!

  • I want to use FreshRSS to also keep additional arbitrary links as "Read Later" (what hoarder does)
  • Hoarder for reading RSS feeds is (at the moment) (for my taste) not that good, missing read/unread and show read/unread feature

Ill think about it and thank you very much for pointing out and doing the hard work

There is a FR by me to allow arbitrary metadata: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/1376
This you could store a "freshrss_read_status" metadata for example.

Otherwise, apart from setting a tag yourself there is no way for karakeep to know if something is read or not.

That's why I also made this FR: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/1423
To track the karakeep reading progress.

I think they would greatly help your use case. Don't hesitate to write it down over there :)

Thanks for the kind words!
