A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

I know this isn't the best community for this topic but Lemmy doesn't have anything more specific (yet). I want to know what's going on that I have this setting in FreshRSS:
And this behavior:
Something tells me it isn't a bug, just going over my head. I'm still new to selfhosting so it's not all clear to me how it works yet.
In the settings menu I have set the "maximum number of articles to keep" at 25, and yet my feeds have more than 25 articles in them.
Depends, take a look at the rest of your settings in the Archiving page.
You might have set "Never delete Unread Articles".
Also, that purge job is on a cron. I'm not sure how often it'll run. Could be once a week or even month. Thousands of rss articles and links are only a few megabytes big. But you can push the "purge now" button at the bottom of the archiving page to check your settings.
Nope I don't have that checked. I also marked all as read and ran a purge manually and it did not delete them.
Thanks for the responses I may just totally wipe then reinstall with my preferred settings and see if it takes this time.
