About 200 different feeds, so knowing what you're looking for would be good. I use Brief on FireFox with Live Bookmarks. Let's me control frequency of downloads, navigate using keyboard, etc.
Just paste it on pastebin!

#13I don't actually use RSS for news, because all the regularly updating sites I read fall into four categories: - News sites like HN or LWN, where I find the RSS experience quite suboptimal compared to participating directly. - Blogs, which I read entirely via Planet aggregators: Planet Debian, Planet GNOME, Kernel Planet, and Planet Mozilla. - Comics, serialized stories, and other things where I want to read every pag…
I actually find RSS more valuable for sites that do not update often. You know, that one blog from an incredible guy who posts five times a year, or from a friend of yours who post a project update even now and then.
I also subscribe for sites that update very often, such as Hack a Day, so I can scan the headlines and sort very fast what I want to save for later (GTD style). For this, I use newsblur keyboard shortcuts.

Whoa, is Brief still being developed? I gave up on it a long ago; it was a decent service.

I removed the "IRL" category of people I know personally.
Lots of these are defunct. "Comics" is the only category I keep up with on a daily basis -- the rest is much more sporadic, just based on what catches my eye when I'm skimming the unread list. I have around 6000 unread items at the moment.
After Google Reader closed down, I switched to Feedly for a few months, then installed Tiny Tiny RSS on my shared hosting -- never have to worry about the service shutting down or modifying its features without my permission anymore.

#18The RSS reader I use is the one I (re)designed called RSSPBRRY. It's available on Github. Link is in my profile, for anyone who wants a peek.

#19Which RSS reader do you all use? RSS fell by the wayside for me after Google Reader was shutdown. I thought HN+Reddit+Twitter+Medium would replace it but I still find myself missing updates from several wonderful sites that don't update regularly.

#20RSS feeds rock! Just needs a bit of tweaking to lower the noise, which is still very low, and best of all - untouched by algorithmic sorting, compared to social platforms like Twitter, Facebook etc.
