My main gripe was that it prunes updates over a certain age (one month?) without telling me, and it pissed me off to no end to find out the way I did. Fever still prunes updates, albeit with an explicit and definable value. It allows up to eight weeks, which is usually enough for me to catch the important updates and makes sense from a personal server perspective, seeing that I don't have an infinite amount of storage available for the burgeoning database of feed updates. After Bloglines died, the concept of cloud-based RSS readers made even less sense to me, seeing that it took all my saved updates with it. I feel the same way about e-mail, but I don't really see a dead-easy alternative available at the moment, especially with Gmail's two-factor authentication. Google Reader also used to, basically, not work at all on Opera, which is normal for any Google service, so it never really grew on me. Its design annoys me to no end as well.
