I was setting up a RSS reader with a bunch of webcomics but I immediately ran into the problem of some being on Instagram and I would like to have some way to handle that without having to use instagram. After some googling I found a bunch of links to abandoned or broken projects with documentation I did not understand.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I am quite the beginner tough, I have a truenas running on an old computer and a raspberry pi in a desk drawer so that the general competence I am working with.

I think this'd help massively by explaining the components to RSS.

As for instagram or the other sites that do not have RSS, you could choose to self host your own RSS generator, such as RSS-Bridge or RSSHub.

With self hosted though, you could even customise those feed generators and customise your own feeds.
