What the heck is a good free or paid RSS reader these days? I paid for Reeder, and a few months later they discontinued support.

If you're on a Mac, NetNewsWire just released a new version after many years. Plus, it's open source.

  I'll check that one, looks like the only one that doesn't require some type of online account. I just want a desktop client.

  NetNewsWire is a wonderful piece of software. I remember it being a part of my daily routine back in 2005ish but then it got bought and bought again and I couldn't afford the price of it (thanks Great Recession!) so I stopped using it. It has been graciously returned to the hands of Brent Simmons, its original developer, who has himself graciously made it Open Source and as fantastic as it ever was.

  Nearly perfect for me but I can't stand three column layout apps. Give me a nice condensed list view a la apple mail, and an option to hide the article pane and defer to pop ups (or open in line like inoreader).

I'm a Feedly subscriber, but recently switched to Newsfold on Android as my reader - it's from the author of the Fenix Twitter client: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.mvilla.android.quote https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.mvilla.andr...

I’m using Feedbin (and their website) in the browser and Reeder 4 on iOS. I think it’s a pretty solid combination.

I just use Emacs/elfeed[1] It's simple and fast with good tagging/searching. Thunderbird also supports RSS feeds. [1]: https://github.com/skeeto/elfeed https://github.com/skeeto/elfeed

How so? I am running the latest Reeder on iOS, and it works great (always has, never found anything that was better overall in terms of reading experience).

I'm using NetNewsWire, they recently shipped 5.0. RSS is slowing getting back. https://inessential.com/2018/08/31/netnewswire_comes_home https://inessential.com/2018/08/31/netnewswire_comes_home
