AndrewStephens on HNThank you for sharing! Loving it already :) One question: Are you feeding this application manually with RSS feeds from different websites or do you have a crawler in place?

Questions
How are feeds added, manually or by crawling?
From 2 comments
Thank you for sharing! Loving it already :) One question: Are you feeding this application manually with RSS feeds from different websites or do you have a crawler in place?
rwieruch on HNThat's very nice work ! Do you crawl sources as well or do you rely on people submitting feeds to you ?
