I have been suddenly attacked by my periodic +feelings of shame for still using (and preferring) good old email to all +those current hip, web 2.\* AJAX webapps. So, I have installed the +program on my server, added the following to my fcontexts for SELinux, +started ``update-daemon`` and run it.:: + + /var/www/tt-rss/.*\.php? all files \ + system_u:object_r:httpd_user_script_exec_t:s0 + +Whole the app worked more or less as advertised, but I have in the end +switched back to my old crusty ``rss2email``. Here are the reasons: + +- First of all that Android didn’t work in the end. Changelog for 1.08 + says it “Fixed connectivity-problems (no more endless waiting with + spinning activity-wheel)”, but that’s exactly how it looked with 1.08 + for me. I wasn’t able to find any help neither on fora, nor on IRC, + so no phone app for me. On the other hand, email works just fine on + the Android, so off-line access to my posts is already available. +- I finally admitted that Simple HTML in Thunderbird of + ``rss2email``\ messages (with HTML on in ``rss2email``) is the best + reading experience out there. I really don’t like all those web apps + which try to cram all user interface into the webpage, so for reading + there is only tiny rectangle in the middle with tiny characters. +- Web interface itself wouldn’t be the problem, but tt-rss contains + also ``update-daemon`` which is written in PHP and runs constantly. + It took more CPU and RAM than any of MySQL, apache, zarafa, or + postfix. Just say NO to PHP daemons (or any scripting language + daemons for that matter; jury is still out on Java daemons, but + suspicion remains). I am glad to be back, and sorry ``rss2email`` + that I have doubt you. + +.. _f-droid repository: + http://f-droid.org/repository/ +.. _Tiny Tiny RSS Reader: + http://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=org.ttrssreader -- cgit
