Reeder works well enough; just because an app hasn't been updated in a year doesn't mean it's not worth paying for and using. The author's "hey I used this for a long time and stopped when it became paid can you promise me updates" letter is obnoxious. The one thing I wish it had was a webview that would honor my content blockers; I think it's still using an outdated webview API on macOS.

Obnoxious letter author here, just to clarify: I'm not stingy and I bought all versions of Reeder on iOS and two versions for macOS. It's not about the 10 bucks, I just don't want to find a new solution / problem every time it goes through stretches of no activity for years, breaks on new OS versions or crashes frequently like some people here reported too. If there's an app with subscription pricing where I know it's a sustainable app for the developer and it'll get adapted to support new macOS features (or updated APIs like you said) then I'm happy to do that. I don't need updates every month, I just want to know that if there's a problem the developer will deal with it at some point.
