Miniflux / FreshRSS
RSS you host. Miniflux is Apache-2.0; FreshRSS is AGPL-3.0 — Feedly without the feed in someone else's building.
The problem
Feedly is a hosted reader with a feed meter. You wanted subscriptions and a river you can export as OPML. Miniflux is Apache-2.0 (one Go binary + Postgres). FreshRSS is AGPL-3.0 if you want folders and a fuller UI. This is not Feedly's Leo AI or every board/magazine view.
