#22Missing: Firefox Offtopic: how to start a poll? I thought it had a high karma limit, but my karma is higher than the TS' and my account is also much older. Or does it require a certain avg?

#23It would help to clarify if we're comparing RSS readers (clients / desk / mobile) or aggregators (web / self hosted)
Ideally there's little difference, like Google Reader. There's a web interface and a mobile app that syncs with it. (Do people really use a desktop client? If so, why? Seems like a relic of another age, like desktop email clients.)

Sure, we're getting off topic, but how is a desktop email client a relic of another age? Especially since the first decent webmail application with "modern" post-1998 features such as a decent split view is less than a year old (outlook.com)?

#30I used to use Opera's excellent RSS reader until I switched to Chrome and went with Google Reader. I am hoping to switch back to Opera at some point and continue using its RSS reader.
