I use news-flash[0], which is a rewrite of feedreader into rust.

I also wrote a blog post about how you can use a news-flash category to automatically populate a webring using openring[1].

Thunderbird. Yes, the e-mail client. Adding a new feed is neither user friendly, nor obvious, but it's nice to not need an extra program to read feeds.

Agreed. It's also nice to have the ability to search everything, I sometimes forget where I read something.

One thing I wish it could do is take a standard web page (HTML) and allow me to build a feed out of it. Or at the least keep any eye on the page and tell me when it changes.

BazQux Reader [1]. I'm developer (a bit biased for sure) but I like to eat my own dog food everyday. [1] https://bazqux.com

I have used BazQux since Google Reader was shutdown and it has been great. The two times I have asked vshabanov something his response has been almost instant (neither time was due to a bug; the service has worked perfectly, for me).

Switched to Feedly and used it for years after Google Reader died, I think it's pretty good.

I wanted offline reading though so I ended up rolling my own [1], it's a bit rough and I don't really need the offline thing since I'm at home most of the time but I still use it out of habit.

I was a fan of Inoreader, but after the licensing change it became too much expensive for my huge number of feeds. So I discover FeedWrangler (https://feedwrangler.net/): it's a good system, very clean, with lot of interesting feature (like automatic filtering, 3rd parties integration, etc.). The only lack is an Android client.

In the future I would like to migrate on self-hosted (if I found the time to reboot my home Docker Swarm cluster).

https://feedbin.com works perfectly for me. I like the relatively clean design and the pricing isn't outrageous. I use the Reeder app on iPad and iPhone to interface with Feedbin.

Same here. This setup works really well for me. Tried a few different ones but this one stuck.
