Somewhat similar topic, anyone has recommendations for a self-hosted internet website change monitoring system? I’ve been running Huginn for many years and it works well; however, I have a feeling the project is on its last leg. Also, it’s based on either text scraping (XPath/CSS/HTML and rss but it struggles with newer JS-based sites.

Thank you! That looks great!

I recommend urlwatch, you run it from a terminal and send the output wherever you want, such as email via cron.

Why do you feel like Huginn is on its last leg? It's been in my list of things to play with for years now, but I never got around to it...

It looks like it’s being maintained by a single remaining developer. No new features are being added, just some basic maintenance. The product as a whole still works well, so unless you find something better, I do recommend it. I run it in k3s and the image is probably the easiest way of maintaining it.
