  • They are closing the whole project.

    Specifically they say that they are tired of pushing fixes and that they don’t find excitement in maintaining the project. With zero mentions at all to being scrapped or having any kind of AI related issue.

    I don’t know if you knew the project before seeing this post. I did, I was considering between this and freshrss and chose freshrss specifically because I knew that the end of ttrss was close (this was like 2 years ago). There were a lot of signs that the development was ending and the project was on route to be abandoned.


  • First, source code is on github.

    Second, RSS aggregators are self hostable, not a service provided by the dev. The dev would have not issues of a public instance of ttrss hosted by someone gets scrapped.

    Third, RSS aggregators doesn’t really tend to be public facing. Due to their personal nature they don’t tend to be open. They are more account based.

    Sorry, I really don’t see the case here.










  • I feel there is a curve there. A stranger seems bad, once you know them they seem good, once you really know they you understand they are bad again.

    There is a lot of facade in people’s relationships that can hide the true faces of people as soon as you get close to them.

    The classical example is the group of people going together to a party and having fun all together but when they return to their homes they start gossiping and thrashing on each other on their backs.

    Sometimes I think that the deranged behavior we use to see online is more true to the true nature of people than in-person social iterations. As Oscar Wilde said, people are the most true to themselves when they are behind a mask.

    At the end of the day the world is full of misery. And this misery is caused by people. People whose close friends and family surely can swear on how “good people” they are.

    I suppose some people could feel comfort in the facade. Believing is real and letting it soothe you. But maybe OP has reach a level of awareness of the truth in human nature that they will just see through that facade and won’t be able to feel comfort in the play.
