I know calibre has recipes, but some sites RSS feeds only provide only titles and not the whole articles. It's way beyond my nonexitent coding abilities to even begin to figure out how to build a custom one.
So... what I've done is use an extension that downloads websites into an epub file --> use calibre to edit and add cover --> convert to keub (to remove annoying page numbers that overlay text) --> upload to dropbox and rename file --> Download to ereader.
Sometimes Is kepuify instead of calibre if I'm on a work computer, my personal PC is a chromebook and if I'm going to linux kepubify I might as well use calibre and swap covers.
It works but it's clunky. Is there something I'm missing to simplify this whole process? Is there an extension that creates epubs without embedded page numbers?

You could try Wallabag, it's in KOReader by default in 'Tools'. Haven't tried it but it seems good.
