<header><h1>Setting up RSS Bridge</h1></header>
<nav></nav>
<main>
<p>RSS Bridge is a useful utility you can use to help you avoid the big tech sites, like Facebook and Twitter, which instead of the feed you usually would see, will be a based and minimalist RSS feed. </p>
<p>You'll need a server or VPS. Nearly any Operating system is supported but for this tutorial I'm gonna presume you're using a Debian-based OS. You'll also need a domain name pointing to your server's IP address <ahref="https://landchad.net/dns.html">which is explained in this tutorial.</a>
</p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<h3>Setting Up and Configuring</h3>
<p>First things first you'll need to make sure that you've hardened you SSH so that password authentication is disabled and you'll also want to setup Fail2Ban.
There's a great tutorial on how to do this <ahref="https://landchad.net/sshkeys.html">which can be read here.</a>
Then we have to create the folder where the service will reside in</p>
<pre><code>cd /var/www
mkdir rss-bridge
cd rss-bridge
</code></pre>
<p>Lets download the latest version of RSS-Bridge in the directory</p>
<p>The newest version can be found <ahref="https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/releases">here</a>, at the time of writing that is "RSS-Bridge 2021-04-25"</p>
<p>This will create a directory called rss-bridge-version-number, we now want to move all the file contents of the newly created directory to the one we are in</p>
<pre><code>cd rss-bridge-2021-04-25
mv * ..
cd ..
rm -r rss-bridge-2021-04-25 2021-04-25.zip
</code></pre>
<p>Now all we need to do is grant read/write permissions and reload the web server</p>
