I've been using email since the Google Reader shutdown. The short versions is that I filter (almost all) feeds into a few folders that have no notifications. Now I have a offline-first reader that is already synced to all of my devices.

I self host freshrss ( https://www.freshrss.org/ ), super easy to set up via docker and it doesn't required some over provisioned dependency setup (DB servers, etc...). It has nice/familiar keyboard shortcuts and a clean and fast interface. My only complaint is that the cloudflare-ifiation (aka enshittification) that is slowly ruining and rotting the internet prevents the fetching of RSS feeds from some news sites fr…

Freshrss is a great choice I think. I use the freshrss web interface on my phone, that works quite well I feel. The app might not be necessary. BTW, Freshrss also has a function to fetch the full article content directly. I think it's not especially clever, just uses a selector, but worked well for me for the one or two feeds where I enabled it.

Oh nice! I didn't know that FreshRSS could do that via the web app, that was pretty much the only reason I used the capy reader app. I'll have to test it out, thanks!

Reeder on iOS / macOS: https://reederapp.com/classic/ With Inoreader as backend: https://www.inoreader.com/

I also really like Reeder but use miniflux as the backend

This is what I use as well. It's not perfect but it's the best I've tried so far.
