If you’re comfortable hosting your own services, I can recommend FreshRSS for an aggregator and FocusReader for an android client.

My personal favourite is somewhat active on there: bird.makeup/users/dark1x Sadly though it is one of many areas on mastodon that is lacking.

I would definitely recommend consumer grade hardware for a small home server, I ran older server gear (dual e5645+42GB ram) and found it to be loud and power hungry, especially at idle. Moved over to only slightly newer consumer stuff (i5-3470+8GB ram) and it still did what I needed it to, without costing $40AUD a month to run.
8GB of RAM is perhaps a bit limiting at times but I’ve not yet run into any critical issues because of it. I wouldn’t want to try simultaneous, high bit-rate transcodes on it but aside from that it’s been fine for my use case.
