newslinkrss generates RSS feeds for websites that do not provide their own. It works by loading URLs with lists of articles, looking for links matching regular expressions, and optionally visiting them to get more information and even processing these target pages with XPath and CSS Selectors if necessary. It is basically a purpose specific crawler or scraper.
The results are printed as a RSS feed to stdout or optionally to a file. The simplest way to use it is just configure your local feed reader, like Liferea or Newsboat, to use a "command" source and pass the correct command line arguments to generate a suitable feed -- this allows you to centralize the configuration in the reader itself and let it handle update times, etc.
Run newslinkrss --help for the complete list of command line options.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
If you’re running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.
For versions of Ubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include snap by default, snap can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for snapd.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
