I've been using News for Nextcloud for the past year or so and love it. But it recently broke (refuses to pull any feeds) and reading the github issues... that app ain't gonna last much longer.

Briefly looked at the awesome selfhosting page and going to do a read through of those when my brain is a bit more sane. But any suggestions? My main requirement is that I need to have multiple android devices able to connect and sync even while off network (I can handle the anxiety that comes from tunnels).

I like Feedbro (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/feedbroreader/). It's a Firefox add-on, so it should run on almost anything that runs Firefox.

I'm just not sure how they finance themselves, so maybe don't use it if you are on some three-letter agency's naughty list.

They could be injecting their own ads or affiliate links into the content.

For example, if a post links to Amazon.

I have not looked at the source code.

Huh, I haven't thought of that.

Openly and well communicated, that could be a good monetization scheme for this kind of software.

Although, If I have my own Amazon referral link in my blog post and they replace the referral code in their feed, I would not be happy about that.

Did not think of that either :)
