What RSS reader do you use?
I've been using Live Bookmarks in Firefox, but it gets unwieldy past a number of feeds. Besides, it can be distracting to have it at the top of my browser window.
What do you guys use?
- bootload 19y ago" ... What do you guys use? ..." Fox as well. "... but it gets unwieldy past a number of feeds. Besides, it can be distracting to have it at the top of my browser window. ..." Are there any 'webapps' that personalise your feeds (url, return number), summarise (title, description, link) them and give you a page to view? (update: maybe http://www.bloglines.com http://www.bloglines.com ?)

- sylvaincarle 19y agoSame here, with subscriptions (feeds) sorted in folders (for topics) and by Attention, a great way for feeds you end up reading/clicking a lot to bubble to the top of your reading list.
- juanpablo 19y agoLiferea (Linux desktop app)
- lucumo 19y agoI use that too. Did you have to use some hack to use it as well? I found that there are errors when I specify the feed directly, while it works perfectly when I use some wget hackery in the command-field.
- AdamG 19y agoI use it on Debian sid, no problems. It tells me it's version 1.0.27.

- altano 19y agoI'm always surprised by how few people recommend Vienna. If you're on the Mac and you're a power user, there just isn't another RSS reader that gets the shortcut keys right. It even has slight variations on how some of the navigation works, so you can pick what you like most. I use space to go through my feeds, occasionally hitting shift-space to go backwards to something I skipped over. For RSS feeds of sites like news.yc, I can glance over all the articles and hit s to mark the whole folder as read. ⌘-z undos your last action. I've got 93 feeds, which I guess isn't a whole lot compared to some nuts, but it works great for me. The only thing it doesn't have is a way to sync between computers, but I don't need that.

- sgraham 19y agoFeedreader on PC, only because some of my feeds require passwords, and online ones don't seem to support that too well. Used to be bloglines before that requirement.

- alec 19y agorss2email - get RSS articles by email. Put it in your crontab and let it get messages for you. Avoid annoying ads and stupid layouts by reading it in a text mail client. It's great.
- derek 19y agoGoogle Reader changed the way I think about RSS. It's superb.

- nreece 19y agoGoogle Reader and http://www.feedity.com http://www.feedity.com (eating our own dog food) for non-RSS pages
- tipjoy 19y agoGoogle-reader. I used to use Sage, the firefox plugin.
- comatose_kid 19y agoNetnewswire (lite) until I realized that RSS was an even greater timesuck than this site. I still have it on my dock, but haven't been brave enough to start it up in a few months (the idea of seeing 4359683^34 unread articles when I boot it isn't a big motivator either).

- inklesspen 19y agoI use Vienna. I tried using Google Reader, but it's crap. It can't handle HTTP-authenticated feeds, and you can't delete feeds en masse.

- florianb 19y agoGoogle Reader but I hate it. Ok it's better than most RSS Readers but still ... the user interface for RSS Readers is just broken http://id-o.de/2007/09/08/why-does-every-rss-application-suck/ http://id-o.de/2007/09/08/why-does-every-rss-application-suc...
- david 19y agoThank you! Now I know I'm not the only person who hates RSS readers :)
- wlievens 19y agoGoogle Reader!
- christefano 19y agoI'm building a Bloglines clone in Drupal.
- dpapathanasiou 19y agoSeekSift.com (disclaimer: this is my current project) which is more than just a feed reader, since it provides filtering and (coming soon) personalized recommendations.
- vuknje 19y agoNetvibes
- vincentliu 19y agoLiferea
- jpincheira 19y agoI use NewsFire. It's pretty good and fast. It lacks of some funtionality when creating smart feeds (yep, it's got smart feeds), anyway I luv it. :)
