If you don’t have an RSS feed, you are not my friend. *
Hi. I’m Daniel Pietzsch.
I’m a web developer based in Düsseldorf, Germany. I make a RSS feed reader called FeedCity. I co-organise the local Homebrew Website Club. I’m also a passionate film photographer, a husband and father, a bass player and guitarist, metalhead, and movie fan. Use , to get in touch.

Stress-free RSS reader FeedCity debuted last year - ranchero.com
OMG. Brent Simmons (of NetNewsWire fame) linked to FeedCity and had nice things to say about it:
This one is not just no-unread-counts but also social, with outbound RSS. Very cool!
Thank you very much, Brent! 🥹
Yesterday was another Homebrew Website Club.
Nina showed us her newly created Instagram-Archive site using Memento Mori. She also detailed how cumbersome it is to delete one’s Instagram account. We then talked about Dark Patterns for a while.
AI has also always been a topic again. How it can for example be useful to get away from big tech and host services yourself. Jochen told us about how he does just that now. What he previously didn’t have the time for now became possible. He also uses AI to add new feature to the website of his Python Podcast.
We also talked a bit about podcasting and available apps as well as how one might get away from large music streaming services like Spotify. And we made our first money transfer using Wero (instead of Paypal).
