I've been using Feedly for a while (since Google Reader went away) and it works well. I'm on the 'free' tier and am happy with it. Note: I'm not associated with Feedly directly (not an employee, not paid by them, etc)
Why do you think Substack is investing into RSS? Seems like a weird move for a company focused on newsletters.
I could see why they would want Substack readers subscribed to multiple publications to have one place outside their inbox to get more value. Some people don’t actually like the email newsletter format and words are words wherever they are.
That combined with kill-the-newsletter (for turning email into RSS feeds) has been working really well for me for the past year or so.
I now read everything with https://bazqux.com (the most true-to-Google Reader I found and the only SaaS I pay for, no affiliation) and it's really enjoyable. The RSS reader format is definitely one of the best reading formats in my opinion.
Will be interesting to see if this becomes the Google Reader replacement missing all these years. Substack is uniquely positioned to offer this kind of product.
Does this work with just Substack content? Or does it work with any RSS feed? I like Substack but am wary of giving control to yet another centralized tool that may ultimately try to leverage a walled garden as their platform strategy.

Substack publications already have rss support, any 3rd party rss reader can be used to consume the news letters.
