Our browser extension bypasses CORS restrictions, letting you follow unlimited blogs with instant refreshes—all while keeping your data private.
Browsers block direct access to most RSS feeds for security reasons (CORS). Traditional solutions route everything through servers—compromising privacy and creating bottlenecks.
Simple, secure, seamless
Add the extension to Chrome or Firefox. Takes less than 10 seconds.
Use Blogs Are Back as usual. The extension works silently in the background.
Follow any blog, refresh anytime. No limits, no waiting.
Right-click any page to add a blog to your reading list. The extension auto-discovers RSS feeds.
Text-to-speech extraction works better with the extension—no proxy delays.
Feed content goes directly to your browser. We never see what you read.
Cached feeds remain accessible. Perfect for commutes and flights.
We believe you should be able to verify everything we do.
We only request what's necessary: access to fetch feeds. Nothing more.
The extension contains zero tracking. Your reading habits stay yours.
No! Blogs Are Back works without the extension. You'll just have some limits on how many blogs you can follow and how often feeds refresh. Think of the extension as unlocking the full experience.
Without the extension, we need to fetch feeds through our servers (due to browser security restrictions). Server bandwidth is expensive, so we have to set reasonable limits. The extension lets your browser fetch feeds directly, eliminating that cost.
The extension only accesses RSS/Atom feed URLs when you're using the app. It doesn't track your browsing, inject ads, or collect any personal data. The code is open source so you can verify this yourself.
We'd love to support Safari! It requires a different development process (and Apple's approval), so it's on our roadmap but not available yet.
Yes, but mobile browsers don't support extensions. You'll have the web-only experience with its limits. For the best experience, we recommend using desktop with the extension.
Install once, benefit forever. Free and open source.
