If you don't want to enable the public registration use the SYMFONY__ENV__FOSUSER_REGISTRATION=false flag. The emailer configuration is only used when a user creates an account, so if you're only going to use it for yourself, it's safe to disable.

Remember to change all passwords to a random value.

If you create RSS feeds for a user, all articles are shared by default, if you only want to share the starred articles, add to your nginx config:

    location ~* /feed/.*/.*/(?!starred){
        deny all;
        return 404;
    }
