#52https://www.protopage.com/ which doubles up as a nice web portal (I know, how quaint!)
Re: Ask HN: What RSS Reader do you use?
#53I use FreshRSS as my reader and use RSS Bridge to expand a lot of feeds

#54Reeder is great. I’ll think about going back to NetNewsWire when they add The Old Reader.

#55Feedly. Switched when google reader died, and honestly it's filled the hole perfectly, does all it needs to do, has premium options to support them. Fast, and clean.
Same here. Does everything Google reader did for me.

#56I use and recommend Feedbin[1].
The interface is pretty good, privacy is respected as far as I can see, service is hosted on their hardware, not in the cloud, the author is very responsive when issues arrive, and the code is available for self-hosting[2].
It is also how I keep up with people on Twitter and YouTube without having to access Twitter or YouTube.

#57Like a few others here, I use an RSS to email converter, although I'm using a custom-written one. The main difference from rss2email is that I'm not actually doing any SMTP - I'm just dumping files into a Maildir and letting isync do the uploading/downloading. The actual reading then happens mostly with Mutt (which also just interacts with Maildir).
Like some others have noted, using email as a storage mechanism reduces part of the problem (tracking which items are read/unread) to one that's already solved (by IMAP). Additionally, using isync lets me have local copies of everything; this used to be really important when I was a "poor" grad student, because I could do cool stuff like download a bunch of comics ahead of time on my laptop, then read webcomics/mailing-lists on the 2-hour bus ride. I still like having local copies of things on principle, although nowadays everybody is always-connected so it's not as useful.

#58Still using Feedly.
Interesting you point to the 6 years time frame, I didn't realise how long I have been using Feedly. And I use RSS Reader even before Google Reader. The workflow is the same for the past 20 years. Command + Click a bunch of links. And that's it.

#59I use Newsblur[1] in the browser. The best part of Newsblur for me, is its intelligence trainer. Suppose you want feeds from website A, but don't want certain stories tagged with "mice", or titles containing "epistemology", and you only want to see articles published by an author named "Joyce Smith", you can do that. It's pretty great. Reading RSS feeds has become so much more pleasurable. The articles that do make i…
I would like to add that mobile application also works as expected with all feature set as web application.
