I use the built-in RSS reader from HeyHomepage.com (disclaimer: I built that).

I pay for Bazqux reader because I’d like for it to stick around as a small business with a vested interest in serving my feeds and not pivoting to newsletters or algorithmic news or whatever:

That gets read from the Reeder app on iOS or on the web on Windows. Longer pieces get saved to Instapaper for Kindle-reading and archived on pinboard.

I've been on NewsBlur since Google Reader was put down. I'm still happy with it. Both the web and phone version are nice, and it rarely has issues. https://www.newsblur.com/

Same for me - sometimes UI changes aren’t good, but usually they were addressed

Drop Feeds[0] - a Firefox browser extension[1] that continues in style of the original Sage (and Sage++) extensions. You can configure it to only show unread feeds and automatically poll for changes, so you always have the latest updates right there in your browser sidebar without having to go to a different application or site.

Subscribed back in the day to a lifetime deal for Feedly, which is very good at filtering out themes/keywords I'm not interested in. On the app side, I haven't found anything more enjoyable than Reeder (mac and iOS). Keyboard shortcuts are great too.

I just use good old Thunderbird.

So do I, since I'm subscribed to a lot of email newsletters and it's nice to have them all together, but the lack of sync between devices is annoying

+1 for Reeder (iPhone only) using Feedly for free as the backend (RIP Google Reader)

I only do RSS browsing on my phone, triage what I'm interested in to emails sent to myself or send to pinboard for archiving/maybe visit later (although probably moving away from PB soon)

Self-hosted tiny tiny rss via browser or iOS client tiny Reader. I use filters aggressively to remove topic saturation. Highly recommend.
