About this project

Folo is an open-source RSS reader positioned as an "AI RSS Reader" and an "open information playground." Its stated goal is to organize content into a single timeline so users can follow what matters without noisy feeds, and to support sharing lists, exploring collections, and distraction-free browsing. Key capabilities described in the README: - Customized information hub: subscribe to a broad range of feeds and curated lists, curate favorites, and track selected topics. - AI features: AI-powered translation, summarization and similar browsing aids are highlighted as built-in functionality. - Dynamic content support: the reader is presented as handling more than text, covering articles, videos, images and audio. - Community orientation: the project frames itself as a community-driven experience rather than only an application, with Discord and X/Twitter channels for support, feature requests and updates. Platform availability: Folo can be used in a browser at app.folo.is, and native apps are distributed through the App Store (iOS and macOS), Google Play (Android), Microsoft Store (Windows), and GitHub releases for desktop builds including Linux. Community-maintained installation options are also listed for Arch Linux (AUR folo-appimage), Flatpak, Nix, Homebrew (macOS cask) and Scoop (Windows). The project states it is under active development and welcomes feedback via GitHub issues. Contribution guidance is provided in a CONTRIBUTING file. Code signing is described for Windows via SignPath.io and SignPath Foundation, and for macOS/iOS via the Apple Developer Program; released files are said to be verified with GitHub artifact attestations. Licensing: Folo is released under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3, with a special exception noting that content in the icons/mgc directory is copyrighted by mingcute.com and cannot be redistributed.
