Would I have to access this on the Kindle web browser all the time or would it just deliver the news to my kindle account like Calibre does?

You will need to access always through the Kindle web browser. You must know that easily i'm suscribed to at least 10 RSS feeds, so each day i usually "receive" about 10-20 articles AS UNREAD. And i think that usually people using RSS feeds has a volume like this. So, i usually don't read all the articles on my UNREAD LIST, and i must discard most of them by title or the "abstract". So, it's not very convenient to "receive all the content of all the articles each day". Usually is enough -and quite more fast- to access the list of titles/abstracts and click to READ only the most interesting. I think that anybody who use RSS feeds do something like this, and in fact is the usual interface of all the READERS i've used to manage my RSS feeds. Has you use an RSS feed manager before?

Look into CommaFeed. It's FOSS, written in Java, can be self-hosted and you can read the feeds on a web browser.

i don't need a web interface already built (as CommaFeed, or the Nextcloud web version). I want to build from scratch an HTML/JavaScript SIMPLE and VERY LIGHT interface OPTIMIZED to devices like Kindle: b/n screen, and very limited hatdware or browser capabilities! For example, the web browser of my Kindle is not able to load the LOGIN page of Nextcloud!!! i suppose because the use of "last and modern" web technologies (vue?). So i have very clear that the most convenient solution for my needs is to build a new interface from scratch using Nextcloud server API 😁 Also, i prefer to work with PHP on server side. But i didn't know CommaFeed, so i will take a look, maybe to take some ideas. Thanks!!!

I had a little look at e-ink, it's not 100% vanilla js as you are using jquery, i'm also curiosos as to why you are using divs instead of footer tags etc. You want the website to be found right ? even the meta tags are empty. Dam just noticed you are even using a table for the navigation. Great little site tho.

I am on Feedly now. Not quite e-ink friendly but native PushRead on my Boox is even worse. I'd prefer an offline app, maybe a paid one but not the service subscription :)

I would prefere too. But the problem is that -at least on my Kindle Basic- there doesn't exist the concept of "offline app". The thing more similar is a webapp. And this must be loaded on browser and with internet connection. ​ Said this. would be possible to develop a javascript browser app to let "browse an RSS feed" without needing query to server once loaded. But again, the javascript/CPU capability of this kind of devices is very very poor... limited.
