Summary 🤖
Feedygram is my personal take on an RSS-to-Telegram bridge. It scrapes your favorite feeds and delivers them through Telegram messages enhanced with Instant View previews.
Architecture 🏗️
- Built from scratch on top of RobotRSS, rebuilding every integration because Telegram APIs evolve so fast.
- Polls feeds at configurable intervals, compares timestamps, and stores new entries in a lightweight SQLite database.
- Converts article URLs into Telegraph posts using [webpage2telegraph], so Telegram’s Instant View renders them beautifully.
- Packaged everything into a Docker image for effortless deployment on my NAS.
Why it matters 💡
- Ideal for staying on top of academic research and niche blogs without jumping between apps.
- The Telegram bot acts like a newsletter you control: no ads, no algorithms, just your curated sources.
