What's a good RSS reader tool these days?

Feedly? Honestly almost every single one of them is identical and they fall into two camps: one is the utility feed reader where all it does is display things in lists and keeps unread statuses (feedly, bunch of other misc apps) and the other camp tries to make them fancy / look nicer (instapaper, pocket, even evernote) but also keeps track of unread statuses, etc.

They're all "good" though I'm not convinced anyone provides a great experience in the read-it-later game. But now I'm getting off topic and ranting.

I'm pretty partial to Newsblur, when I'm in an RSS mood. For a while now I've just been in the habit of manually going to X sites.

There are different layout options, in case you don't like the default.

The mobile app is nice, too.

Shameless self promotion of my own blog with a lot of data analysis/visualization resources: http://minimaxir.com

Currently working in a blog post (hopefully will be up tomorrow morning) on how I reverse-engineered the Taxi Map of NYC which was posted in the HN comments this week (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10004007) using only R and ggplot2 as visualization tools: http://i.imgur.com/WzMnCbU.png

I've been a big fan of your blog and also tried to recruit you at one time to no response!
