I run an instance of FreshRSS [0] and access it from a browser, but I also use NetNewsWire [1] as a client on platforms where it is available. [0] https://freshrss.org/ [1] https://netnewswire.com/

I’m run an instance as well. I use Lire as client for iOS.

Lire is hands down the best reader on iOS, and a one-time purchase too. I really love it.

I've been using RSS-to-email since forever. I now run my own RSS-to-email service. I filter (almost all) of them into folders that don't notify and then they are there ready to read across all of my devices that are logged into my email. I find that email clients are quite suited to RSS reading. They have folders, searching, filtering and unread/read/deleted tracking that is synced cross-device. And for the few feeds…

Yes! My favorite RSS feed reader is mutt (and the email ecosystem around it like procmail).

With email I already have infinitely flexible filtering, sorting, on-the-fly modification of headers and content, and a reader with best in class threading and TUI.

So I use RSS to email to inject all the RSS content into this ecosystem and inherit all the goodness of email for RSS as well.

(This is how I follow HN, for instance.)

I self-host FreshRSS. I prefer the feeds to be pulled from a server rather than locally from a browser. This lets me check out news feeds from work without worrying about my computer pinging websites IT doesn't like.

I'd love recommendations for a good Android client. Right now I just have the site installed as a web app. It works, but I have a foldable phone and the site displays a little weird when unfolded in landscape.
