ownCloud News: http://algorithmsforthekitchen.com/blog/?p=580

* ownCloud is mainly for LAMP but also works on Nginx (which I presume is the N): http://owncloud.org

* it’s a web app, and there are several mobile clients: https://github.com/owncloud/news#mobile-clients

* simple UI. What do you mean by »Inbox system«? (If it’s »unread items«, we have that)

* it’s open source, AGPL v3, code up at https://github.com/owncloud/news

* Plus: We have an API so anyone can code apps for it: https://github.com/owncloud/news/wiki/API-1.2

What do you think?

That looks very good actually. The best benefit is it looks like I can also store files and whatnot. Perhaps I can move several services to ownCloud. I'll take a look.

Yep. If you have any feedback or want to contribute please join in. :) All our stuff is at http://github.com/owncloud

Hey, it took me close to an hour to setup ownCloud (it's tricky to get it working correctly on Nginx). Now that the dust has settled, it's really nice. Thank you for making this.

(Sorry for the late reply, didn’t see your comment!)

Yeah, we’re focused on Apache, but there’s documentation for Nginx and others at https://github.com/owncloud/documentation/blob/stable5/admin...

If you have improvements to the documentation, please contribute at https://github.com/owncloud/documentation/blob/stable5/admin...

Thank you!

Tiny Tiny Rss.

You can use some css themes to have tiny tiny rss to look like google reader.

I tried fever for a while but stuck with Tiny tiny, for me it works better due to the customization options and lower server footprint.

Another vote for tt-rss here, too. I use my own 2006 vintate fork (I decided I couldn't handle trying to contribute patches back to the developer) and haven't kept current with the mainline code, but it has served me very well.

I also moved to tt-rss and it works well a few niggles aside.

About the worst thing I can say about it is that the main developer is rather abrasive.

I'm also happy with tt-rss. I considered myself a heavy user of Reader with about 500 feeds. The only negative I'm currently experiencing is that the mobile web version has been phased out by trunk, and the very good looking alternate tends to crash my phone's browser every few articles. Since there are multiple native Android clients, I'm not all that concerned.

I use the forked version of the Android client and it works very well. I think I tried the mobile web site briefly but don't really care since I do my main reading in a web browser on a desktop/laptop, and the rest on tablets which work the same and then a tiny minority of the time on a small screened mobile device.

I moved to TT-RSS immediately upon the GReader shutdown news. I'm perfectly happy with it.

It doesn't meet all your requirements but try http://Readable.cc. You can sign up on the website or host it yourself.

I suggest lowering your expectations.

PHP-based RSS reader with a similar UI? I don't really see that to be asking too much. How low should I go then?
