Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Hard for a "layperson", maybe. But IMHO for someone interested in self-hosting this probably should not be a hard problem to solve, or at least a decent "warmup exercise" to see if you'd like it.
I say this because you don't even need to write the script yourself, there are plenty of preexisting applications that can be configured to notify you of updates to an RSS feed.
I'm sure I could whip that up in changedetection.io or Node-RED pretty quickly, for example.
I don't use a dedicated RSS feed reader app, but I'd also be somewhat surprised if there isn't one that supports some form of push notifications.
