I like The Old Reader: https://theoldreader.com/ https://theoldreader.com/ It's largely a reimplementation of the Google Reader experience.

  I can't find any pricing info, what's the deal?

    I use the free version and for my needs it's fine (basically 100 feed limit and after a while old posts drop off the feed, I'm not sure how long). For 25 dollars a year you get 500 feeds and one year retention (up to 1000 posts per feed) and you can pay more for a larger number of feeds.

I’ve been using miniflux, and it’s quite cool. David Winer’s Feedland is nifty too.

NetNewsWire if you're on macOS/iPhone

I use Newsblur, mostly. It feels a bit dated at times, but does what I want it to do and has an email address that you can send newsletters to to read like feeds. I've been meaning to switch over to miniflux for a while, but can never really get up the momentum. It seems nice.

  I have been using feedbin since Google Reader was killed. No regrets, I happily pay for it.

NewsBlur - I'm on a paid plan since I'm a packrat with almost 700 feeds. It is a pretty busy interface but has tons of functionality. Their mobile app is also pretty good. https://newsblur.com/ https://newsblur.com/

  what do you do with 700 news feeds?!

I moved all my stuff to Thunderbird a while ago, and unless you have more specific demands, having a basic self-run RSS reader beats just about all fancy hosted solutions out there. Old-school e-mail works well a lot of the time too.

On the Apple ecosystem, Reeder remains my favorite: https://reederapp.com https://reederapp.com It's got a simple and clean user interface, and it stores the feed in iCloud, so no need for a third-party server application.

I prefer a daily digest so I use this tool which I built, easy to setup: https://github.com/piqoni/matcha https://github.com/piqoni/matcha It generates markdown locally but Obsidian is also on my phone so its also mobile.

I've heard nothing but bad things, and had nothing but good experiences with Thunderbird.

newsboat if you want something for the CLI

I use an RSS-to-email service to email them to me. Then most feeds get sorted into folders for reading later. A few got to my inbox for more urgent response. I currently use an RSS-to-email service that I operate but I used other services for almost a decade before that. There are a handful available ad supported and paid or you can self-host.

I personally prefer to read my feeds via my email client, and hacked up an RSS to email script: https://github.com/skx/rss2email/ https://github.com/skx/rss2email/ Having the feeds in your mail client makes sorting, and searching trivial. Plus you get the content archived for future reference.

I use @rss2tg_bot that channels RSSes to a telegram chat.

I use Feedly, which is more a scraper, but can be pointed at RSS sources.

  I use Feedly for RSS exclusively. Works great, simple and clean.

I like Newsblur on the web. Also use Unread on iOS/iPadOS with Newsblur as the aggregator.
nortonham 4y ago
if you like the cli on linux/unix then newsboat is great

I know NetNewsWire and NewsBlur have already been mentioned, but I use both of them together. I use NewsBlur on Windows, and NetNewsWire with my NewsBlur account on Mac/iOS. NetNewsWire also supports iCloud, Feedbin, Feedly, and other services (and locally without syncing).
