If it's open source, you could perhaps tinker with the algorithm. My main desires for rss feeds are:

  • a way to filter out fluff affiliate link articles (e.g., 8 best gadgets on sale for prime day)
  • a way to cluster articles on the same topic (i don't really need to read 5 articles about the same news item)

Any clue if nunti could do that?

Newsblur can do the first kind of filtering. You select "best gadgets" in the title, and all posts on that feed with that phrase in the title will be hidden from then on.

Feeder can do keyword filtering on titles, but not on a per feed basis, and only with simple wildcards. I've been able to filter out a bit with it, though.
