Simple and quick. Strong work! How does a newb get the most out of this? I love the concept, just not clear on usage pathways. Thanks!

@ahrichards Most content websites have an RSS feed. You can grab the feed and read in your favorite reader as a user. An RSS reader is an application that aggregates all feeds you like.
My project is about reading content through RSS using a Telegram bot. This is useful for users that like to be notified about updates there.
Thanks for your comment!
@jurijtokarski appreciate your work and learning from you. I like this concept much better than some complex algorithm choosing my news for me. Well done sir!
Hi, community 👋 I would like to share with you a tool I created recently.
🦕 I am still an RSS user. I know each media has its own social media profile. But I try to limit social media usage. In this case, I needed another solution to be up to date with important content. Thus RSS looks good to me: no ads, no distracting content.
😓 I used a few tools, like Feedly. But those tools were not comfortable for me. I wanted something simple, quick, and minimalist.
🌤 Thus I found useful the idea that I can read my feeds in the environment I use every day, like Telegram. Thus I decided to launch a small bot for RSS reading purposes.
🤖 The bot has 2 commands: `/addfeed` and `/myfeeds`:
— For an `addfeed` command you need to pass 1 or many feed URLs.
— With `myfeed` you can manage your feeds and remove URLs you don't use anymore.
🙏 Thanks for your attention, I hope the tool might be useful for you. To report a bug or give feedback just drop me an email at jurij@jurijtokarski.com.
@thegulshankumar no :-) I collect only chat IDs to know where to send updates from feeds.
@jurijtokarski Great! Thank you.
Is there any way to change feed update interval? I want to receive update almost instantly under 5 minutes.
@thegulshankumar it’s not possible at the moment.
But can please drop me an email at jurij@jurijtokarski.com with feeds, where you need update under 5 minutes? Usually it’s not a case for RSS.
@marfapr please drop a link to the feed which doesn't work at jurij@jurijtokarski.com and I will check what is wrong. Thank you!
@saurabh_gayali Thank you! What exactly was wrong? Please send more details to jurij@jurijtokarski.com or in the support group https://t.me/FidderChat?
