Fix https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/issues/8268 To better support user management on FreshRSS instance with many users. SQL speed improved. On a reduced test with 5 users, including some large accounts (PostgreSQL on a very tiny and slow server), improving from ~2.3s to ~1.8s, which gives ~20% speed improvement. Then tested with 1000 users, with only the default feed (on my old desktop computer): ```sh for i in {1..1000}; do ./cli/create-user.php --user=freshrss$i --password=freshrss; done app/actualize_script.php cli/access-permissions.sh ``` SQLite: ```console $ time cli/user-info.php | wc -l 1001 real 0m1.366s user 0m0.908s sys 0m0.475s ``` PostgreSQL: ```console $ time cli/user-info.php | wc -l 1001 real 0m28.498s user 0m12.137s sys 0m2.217s ``` MariaDB: ```console # time ./cli/user-info.php | wc -l 1001 real 0m49.485s user 0m1.276s sys 0m2.258s ``` Yes, SQLite is much faster - not a surprise for such use-cases, where the TCP connection is not re-used. I have added some CLI options to disable some statistics: ```sh cli/user-info.php --no-db-size --no-db-counts ``` For the Web UI, I have disabled detailed user statistics if it takes too long, and retrieve missing user statistics asynchronously via JavaScript. Lazy loading of the user details based on IntersectionObserver, with maximum 10 requests in parallel. Web UI tested on 1000 users as well. Checked with SeaMonkey.

FreshRSS
FreshRSS is a self-hosted RSS feed aggregator.
It is lightweight, easy to work with, powerful, customizable, and has been translated into many languages.
It is a multi-user application with an anonymous reading mode. It supports custom tags. There is an API for (mobile) clients, and a Command-Line Interface.
Thanks to the WebSub standard, FreshRSS is able to receive instant push notifications from compatible sources, such as Friendica, WordPress, Blogger, Medium, etc.
FreshRSS natively supports basic Web scraping, based on XPath, for Web sites not providing any RSS / Atom feed. Also supports JSON documents.
FreshRSS offers the ability to reshare selections of articles by HTML, RSS, and OPML.
Different login methods are supported: Web form (including an anonymous option), HTTP Authentication (compatible with proxy delegation), OpenID Connect.
Finally, FreshRSS supports extensions for further tuning.

Manual install
- Get FreshRSS with git or by downloading the archive
- Put the application somewhere on your server (expose only the
./p/folder to the Web) - Add write access to the
./data/folder for the webserver user - Access FreshRSS with your browser and follow the installation process
- or use the Command-Line Interface
- Everything should be working :) If you encounter any problems, feel free to contact us.
- Advanced configuration settings can be found in config.default.php and modified in
data/config.php. - When using Apache, enable
AllowEncodedSlashesfor better compatibility with mobile clients.
More detailed information about installation and server configuration can be found in our documentation.
Advice
- For better security, expose only the
./p/folder to the Web.- Be aware that the
./data/folder contains all personal data, so it is a bad idea to expose it.
- Be aware that the
- The
./constants.phpfile defines access to the application folder. If you want to customize your installation, look here first. - If you encounter any problem, logs are accessible from the interface or manually in
./data/users/*/log*.txtfiles.- The special folder
./data/users/_/contains the part of the logs that are shared by all users.
- The special folder
FAQ
- The date and time in the right-hand column is the date declared by the feed, not the time at which the article was received by FreshRSS, and it is not used for sorting.
- In particular, when importing a new feed, all of its articles will appear at the top of the feed list regardless of their declared date.
Extensions
FreshRSS supports further customizations by adding extensions on top of its core functionality. See the repository dedicated to those extensions.
