Why switch
Why teams move off Feedly
Self-hosting is not only about saving money. These are the reasons people make the switch.
Own your data
Your data lives on a server you control, not on Feedly's infrastructure. No surprise policy changes and no lock-in.
No per-seat pricing
Open-source alternatives to Feedly are free to run for as many users as your server can handle. A small VPS often costs less than a single subscription.
Customize and extend
Read the code, add plugins, connect it to your own tools and automate it through open APIs. When you need a feature, you can build it or fund it.

Can I self-host an alternative to Feedly?
Yes. FreshRSS, Miniflux and RSS-Bridge ship a Docker image, so you can run them on a home server or VPS with Docker Compose in a few minutes. Your data then stays on hardware you control.
How do I migrate from Feedly?
Start by exporting your data from Feedly, then check the import options of the app you pick, since many projects ship importers for popular formats. Run both side by side for a week before you switch so nothing is lost.
