POX added Nextcloud News as alternative to Pulp RSS- cosmospider reviewed Nextcloud News
This extension was broken and unusable for more than half of the year for stable versions of Nextcloud: since version 28 was released on December 12, 2024. Seeing an official extension having so little maintenance is sad, it provided one of a few good features I liked in Nextcloud.

Comments and Reviews
Simple web-based news reader for Nextcloud that feels faster in the browser than some desktop apps I've used. Took me all of a minute to install on my Nextcloud server, and a few more to find the export button on Feedly. (It imported my subscriptions perfectly.)
There's a corresponding app for Android that's lightweight, fast, and stable. It works exactly like you'd expect, down to swiping gestures to save/archive posts from the list view, or flip through article view, and matches the system light/dark theme by default. Super easy to set up if you already have the Nextcloud app on your phone.
I use this as a replacement for Tiny Tiny RSS. It works really well, and is easy to install (provided you already have a NextCloud instance). The mobile app is also very solid, and my primary way to read the news feeds. Definitely recommend it.
