CLUSTER RSS-ARTICLES-ATOM · 11 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2022-11-21

Desktop RSS reader apps

This cluster consists of desktop applications that fetch and display RSS/Atom feeds, with features like OPML import/export, simplified reading views, and unread/starred filters. The dated history before the index start shows six entries scattered from 2019 to 2026, indicating a sparse and irregular release pattern rather than any concentrated activity. Traction is led by wordpress-fetch at 1 star, while the other two members have 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 11 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
