I use Thunderbird for RSS, too. Once got bitten by some browser extension that stopped working all of a sudden, and didn't let me export (except copy pasting each feed URL on its own, with clicks inbetween each time).
My most important/only rule for feeds is: Add nothing that updates more than once a day. Such websites are better off as bookmark in the browser.
And from my ~200 feeds only a fraction actually hit that limit. So I have a nice manageable chunk of unreads every day!
- stanislavb 3y agoHey mate, I've solved this problem (frequency of updates) at Lenns.io. i.e. it's an opinionated RSS reader/tracker with a few unique features (at least they are unique when combined). You can tag each Feed Source into multiple categories. Then, you set priority weights (manuallY) to both Sources and Categories. That way - the sources or topics that you are most interested in always pop up at the top of your feed. Then, to avoid the issue with one source overtaking your feed - you can set a limit on how many posts you want displayed per feed. I hope this makes sense. And, I will appreciate if you give it a go and share you feedback as an experienced RSS user. Cheers!
- riidom 3y agoHi sounds interesting, but I'm not into using external services for RSS. Yes, I do give up on sync this way, but I usually don't need syncing anyway. Good luck with your service!
