Can you implement a per feed setting of cookies for retrieving content from hard paywalled sites?
FreshRSS and Miniflux both support this on the self-hosted option, and I use the FreshRSS implementation for many feeds, but would prefer to do it in Bazqux as a hosted solution that I don’t have to manage myself, worry about downtime, power outages, etc.
Personally I’ve moved most of my reading to hard paywalled subscriptions, primarily Substacks.
Doesn’t Substack provide an RSS feed with a key? Like http://...?key=abcd1234
Or a feed with a basic auth?
Cookies don’t look very convenient.
Or maybe they support newsletters and can be used via https://kill-the-newsletter.com/ (that’s how I subscribe to paywalled sites)
No, there are only public feeds on Substack.
They do have newsletters and that is a solution but I prefer the pure reading view of RSS and I have other subscriptions that don’t send newsletters.
I understand it’s a difficult implementation that probably very few people would use. Thank you for your consideration.
