I’m thinking about running FreshRSS on my local Linux PC, but my computer isn’t on all the time.

Basically all I want is to have read/unread status synced between my PC and other 2 phones. Could I have that? Most of time my PC would be off and I will be reading articles on phone, would the read status be synced to PC once it’s on?

    Yeah, it’s better if you can have the computer on all the time, but it only needs to be running when you access it.

    I’m not that familiar with FreshRSS, but in general apps will only update at opening (not in the background) for most syncing operations. You may have to do more manual syncing than you would like.

      FreshRSS has an API that can be called by different apps in the app store.

      I use FreshRSS web interface on my computer, and then use the Readrops app on my phone.
