For many years, I used Feedity for generating RSS feeds from webpages without one. They've since renamed to New Sloth, and also have a nice although basic feed reader. I like its article grouping feature, and use the whole package (feed creation and reading) for my research work on a daily basis.

I'm self-hosting my own RSS reader implementation. Feel free to check it out https://github.com/nearsyh/near-rss.

I'm using https://theoldreader.com/ . It is very similar to the discontinued Google Reader.

Same here. Does what I need it to do, but I've noticed that it only syncs one-way with NetNewsWire (pulls feeds in, but won't update read status), unfortunately. It's still good enough for my needs as I'm not subbed to that many feeds.

I use NetNewsWire these days, but for anyone who wants to dabble in RSS with minimal investment, I highly recommend FeedBro, a well-executed Firefox add-on. It has a highly customizable UI. It handles all the fetching/refreshes/storage right in your browser, no need to install anything else or self-host a backend. And you can import/export OPML feed collections, so you can easily switch to another solution when you o…

NetNewsWire can sync between multiple devices using iCloud, no third party service needed. It works very well for me.

I use netnewswire because I'm in the Apple ecosystem. https://netnewswire.com/

I seem to be the only person who doesn’t like NetNewsWire. The fact that you still can’t configure global settings that cover all feeds makes it useless for me.

Not useless, but less usefull.

I'm amazed to search this whole conversation and not find anyone using Liferea. Simple, free, and effective. I have no complaints.

I used Liferea for some years. Then I found QuiteRSS, which is much better.

QuiteRSS on Windows. I was using newsbeuter/newsboat when I was on Linux and I really liked it. My wants from a reader are very basic though, I'm really only interested in getting the title and links, I don't care if it even has a content viewer beyond text-only.

QuiteRSS also runs on Linux.

QuiteRSS on Windows. Still not perfect in terms of features but it's fast.
