Self-host Miniflux for a fast private feed reader.
Miniflux gives you a focused RSS inbox with your own subscriptions, read history and admin account. VibeNest launches a prepared adapter with Postgres, generated secrets and free SSL.
Private reading state
Subscriptions, unread state and saved entries belong to one user or admin instead of a shared demo reader.
Self-contained adapter
The adapter uses Miniflux on port 8080 plus Postgres 16, generated passwords and persistent database storage.
Public smoke passed
The smoke deploy reached running and the public URL opened the real Miniflux sign-in page, not a VibeNest fallback.
Deploy Miniflux in one click
- 1. Launch the adapter VibeNest opens the deploy flow with the Miniflux adapter repo and branch pre-filled.
- 2. Confirm hardware Use a free or paid server slot so Miniflux and Postgres have RAM, CPU and persistent storage.
- 3. Sign in and configure feeds Open Miniflux on your VibeNest subdomain, sign in with the generated admin credentials and add your feeds.
A minimalist self-hosted RSS reader
Miniflux intentionally keeps the reading interface quiet and fast. It is designed for people who want subscriptions, unread state, categories, search and keyboard-friendly reading without turning the feed reader into a social network or content discovery service.
The VibeNest recipe is self-contained: the application and PostgreSQL database deploy together, migrations run automatically and the first administrator is generated from protected environment values. Feed history and account state stay in the Postgres volume.
Sign in, change credentials, add feeds
Reveal the generated administrator password from the project settings, sign in and replace it with a password you keep safely. Add feeds or import OPML, tune refresh frequency for the available hardware, and include the Postgres volume in the backup routine.
Source, VibeNest recipe and live proof
Original open-source project
Review the upstream source, release notes and Apache-2.0 license before you deploy or update the app.
Original GitHubVibeNest-ready recipe
Adapter uses the official Miniflux image on port 8080 plus self-contained Postgres 16, generated admin/database passwords and persistent Postgres storage. The public compose service is named app so Coolify domain binding targets app:8080.

Public URL returned HTTP 200 with <title>Sign In - Miniflux</title>, MinifluxSessionID cookie and username/password fields.
Open live deploymentFrequently asked questions
Is Miniflux open source? +
Yes. Miniflux is open-source software. VibeNest launches it through a small adapter that keeps upstream intact and adds deploy-safe defaults.
Why should I run my own Miniflux instance? +
RSS subscriptions and read history are personal. Your own instance keeps that state under your VibeNest project instead of a shared reader.
Does Miniflux fit the free tier? +
The adapter passed a VibeNest free-tier smoke deploy. Very large feed lists or aggressive refresh schedules may need a paid hardware slot.
Does it need Postgres? +
Yes. The VibeNest adapter includes a Postgres service in docker-compose so the first deploy is self-contained.
What was fixed for VibeNest? +
The adapter uses a public app service on port 8080, generated admin and database passwords, persistent Postgres storage and Coolify compose domain binding for app:8080.
