Inoreader. It allows me to add rss, twitter and youtube and apply rules and filters as to what to include / exclude.

I don’t like twitter but sometimes that’s the only way people communicate or share their art. Inoreader lets me add twitter users with a filter (e.g not interested in tweets without pictures (artists), not interested in retweets, only interested in tweets that contain ‘released’, ‘beta’ or ‘rc’ (software).

Really cool for trimming down the noise and a smooth, clean experience.

http://www.bazqux.com/ - I paid for a lifetime subscription a couple years ago and never looked back. The interface is great is both desktop and mobile, since it’s online everything is kept in sync across devices and I can configure the interface to my liking. I tried many RSS readers and nothing came close.

https://github.com/p-e-w/krill I use krill because I like to get my feeds in a CLI. It also supports adding twitter. Development has stopped a while ago and I don't know of any active forks unfortunately.

Feedly. 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.

ditto

FreshRSS. It's pretty good and much like Google Reader, if you liked that.

You haven’t mentioned what you want to use RSS for, so I‘ll try to provide some context as to how I use it. Feedbin account linked to NetNewsWire on my iPad, iPhone and Mac. I chose Feedbin because it is 1. A paid subscription, I forgot what I paid, but $50/year I want to say and 2. A ton of RSS apps support it. I like the clear cut relationship and expectations of being a customer, not merely an entitled user with a…

Fair enough, my goal is for setting up learning resources and track them.
