I use “Reeder” - http://reederapp.com I connect/subscribe it to various things - one of which is a previously curated FreshRSS instance, running in a docker container. So reeder connects and updates read/new feed additions too.

Reeder for iOS with a Feedbin subscription. This combination has worked perfectly for years.

I use netnewswire because I'm in the Apple ecosystem. https://netnewswire.com/

I seem to be the only person who doesn’t like NetNewsWire. The fact that you still can’t configure global settings that cover all feeds makes it useless for me.

Been using it for the last two years and it’s been great so far. Not sure if sub price would be justified for other people but for me the cheapest paid tier covers basically everything I need from a reader.

I pay for Inoreader as it most closely matches the Google Reader social experience for me. You can follow other users, share articles to your feed for other users to discover and comment back and forth. I always said I would have paid Google to keep Reader going, so I put my money where my mouth was with Inoreader. I do find it’s search capabilities somewhat lacking tho. Mobile app is decent, desktop website is great.

I’m using Reeder with Feedly. Reeder makes processing a lot of feeds pretty easy.

I keep hoping Feedly will help separate the wheat from the chaff in my feeds with their ML work, but it seems to require me doing more than clicking on what to read to identify my likes and dislikes.

I’ve played with Matter and Readwise Reader, and so far I’m not impressed. I like Readwise in theory, but the RSS reading UI is a bit slow though I might need to tweak the settings to make it quicker.

Not sure if it's just me, but I have not used a RSS reader as a serious reading software for years. Instead, I only use a RSS reader software to quickly go through all the unread items and send interesting articles to a read-later or bookmark service. The main reasons are: - Some feeds only provide title/summary and not the full text article (yes, I know there are full-text extraction service, but last time I tried t…

Same here but I think we were mostly forced into it. Site owners care more about getting you on their site than the quality of the content. There's no incentive to include a bare bones version for RSS so, if they even have an RSS feed, it's just links. Aggregate sites can't even include the content. Also, there's just too much multimedia content these days, a proper browser will always be more reliable for viewing it. I really don't mind it. I just love not having to re-scan over headlines I've already seen or intentionally skipped over.

rawdog (RSS Aggregator Without Delusions Of Grandeur) [1].

It's a simple script that I manually trigger once a day to check my list of feeds from a config file. It caches the known posts and generates static HTML with summaries of the new posts for me to browse locally.

Also a happy NNW user. I'd been using Feedbin, which is also good, but since I'm a Mac and iOS user, I switched to using NNW with iCloud syncing, which has been working great. It's so nice to have fully-native apps!
