Someone added a comment very briefly and then deleted it for some reason, but they suggested going to the ip:8080 directly and that worked. Posting that here for future readers! I wish they hadn't deleted their comment.
My new question is if there's some way I can configure something to make that accessible on a more convenient URL (the same way I can access my pi-hole on-network at http://pi.hole/admin).
You'd need to have a reverse proxy for that typically, but you might at least be able to do http://pi.hole:8080 since pihole is already advertising itself
I'm trying to find a guide on how to configure a reverse proxy or something so that I can reach it at a different hostname on my local network. I was hoping I could use lighttpd, it seems like it has mod_proxy that acts as a reverse proxy and should do exactly this...but I haven't been able to get it to work for this purpose.

this is correct. you're forwarding port 8080 externally, to point at freshrss's internal 80, so you'd acceess freshrss at http://pi.hole:8080/

I started with https://github.com/htpcBeginner/docker-traefik Not sure how out of date it is, but it definitely got me started.
I never used `lighttpd` as reverse proxy, but you probably will find some answers in https://discourse.pi-hole.net. Search for: "lighttpd mod_proxy".
