Selfhosted
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.

This is not quite true. As I mentioned in my other comment already, each feed entry needs its own unique UUID. You have to generate such a UUID for every entry.
Per the RSS specification the
guidfield is optional.And if you do want to provide it, any string works. So just count up from 1, use the title, current date or whatever for that field.
Thanks for pointing this out. I thought this had to be an actual UUID. Generating a unique string of arbitrary format manually is certainly much easier to do manually without additional tools.
it can also just be the permalink for the post, which each post ought to have anyway. in RSS you can set isPermaLink=“true” on the guid to indicate it’s a permalink.
It's pretty easy to create a uuid. There are many ways to do it. Which is best for you would depend on how you're generating your website.
