I switched to using NetNewsWire as an open-source alternative and have been enjoying it, the mac desktop client works great for my needs. Had previously been using feedly for quite sometime, had contemplated upgrading but honestly didn't feel compelled to pay for an rss service. I sync my feeds via icloud and it works fine between desktop and mobile

Re: Ask HN: How do you manage RSS feeds effectively?
#14> 1. What's the limit and the diversity of the feeds do you have?
Mostly personal blogs, a few company blogs, and HN feeds
2. What software/service do you use now and prefer?
3. How far are you depended on the Social Media algorithms' prioritizing the contents that could potentially save much time?
You can save even more time by not reading anything. I use RSS because I want to control what I read myself. I read as much or as little as my time permit; I don't have FOMO.
4. What is the solution for the websites/social media that doesn't provide RSS feed in itself?
Why should they? RSS is the wrong venue for them anyhow.
5. RSS feeds now - Worth it?
I am not sure what you expect to get; people bother to answer all the questions so far would most likely say yes, except the masochists.
