#22Netnewswire (lite) until I realized that RSS was an even greater timesuck than this site. I still have it on my dock, but haven't been brave enough to start it up in a few months (the idea of seeing 4359683^34 unread articles when I boot it isn't a big motivator either).

#24I use Vienna. I tried using Google Reader, but it's crap. It can't handle HTTP-authenticated feeds, and you can't delete feeds en masse.

#26Google Reader but I hate it. Ok it's better than most RSS Readers but still ... the user interface for RSS Readers is just broken

I use that too. Did you have to use some hack to use it as well?
I found that there are errors when I specify the feed directly, while it works perfectly when I use some wget hackery in the command-field.

#29Vienna on a Mac. It's superb (and free too)! http://www.opencommunity.co.uk/vienna2.php
I'm always surprised by how few people recommend Vienna. If you're on the Mac and you're a power user, there just isn't another RSS reader that gets the shortcut keys right. It even has slight variations on how some of the navigation works, so you can pick what you like most. I use space to go through my feeds, occasionally hitting shift-space to go backwards to something I skipped over. For RSS feeds of sites like news.yc, I can glance over all the articles and hit s to mark the whole folder as read. ⌘-z undos your last action. I've got 93 feeds, which I guess isn't a whole lot compared to some nuts, but it works great for me.
The only thing it doesn't have is a way to sync between computers, but I don't need that.
