Moving from Tiny Tiny RSS to FeedNest

Tiny Tiny RSS runs on your own server, and in November 2025 its original developer took down the tt-rss.org site, its forum, and its code repositories. The project goes on as a community fork on GitHub and existing installs keep working, but they still need a server, updates, and PHP upgrades. If you would rather read than maintain, your subscriptions move to FeedNest in a few minutes, categories included.

What comes across from Tiny Tiny RSS

Feeds
Feeds, refreshed for you with no server to run.
Categories
Folders, created from your OPML file.
Starred and published articles
Not in the OPML file. Save the ones you still need with Add Link.
Labels and filters
Not in the OPML file. Tags do the job of labels; rule-based filters are not available yet.
Mobile apps
FeedNest for iOS and Android, plus the web app.

Step by step

  1. Export OPML from Tiny Tiny RSS

    Open Preferences, go to the Feeds tab, open the OPML section, and choose Export OPML. You get one file with every feed and category.

  2. Create a free account

    Sign up with your email or with Google, Apple, or X. The free plan needs no payment details.

  3. Import the file

    Open Add, choose Import feeds, and drop the file in. FeedNest shows the feeds and folders it found, imports them in the background, and emails you when it is done.

  4. Start reading

    Each feed's latest articles appear as it is imported, and new ones arrive as the feeds refresh. Read on the web or in the iOS and Android apps.

Before you switch

  • The free plan follows up to 150 feeds, Plus 1,500, and Pro 3,000. If your file holds more than your plan allows, the import stops at the limit and lists the feeds it left out.
  • YouTube channels and podcasts need Plus: on the free plan the import skips them and lists them.

Questions

Will my categories come across?

Yes. Each category in the OPML file becomes a folder. If you already have a folder with the same name, the new one gets a number after it.

What about starred articles, labels, and filters?

OPML carries feeds and categories only. Save the starred articles you still need with Add Link, and use tags where you used labels.

Do I need to keep a server running?

No. FeedNest is hosted: feeds refresh on their own, and you read in the browser or in the iOS and Android apps.

Can I take my data with me if I leave FeedNest?

Yes. In Settings, under Account, OPML Export downloads every feed and folder you follow as a file that any RSS reader can import.
