After trying Fever, Tiny Tiny RSS (both self hosted), and Feedbin (very slow), I've switched to Newsblur and I like it quite a bit. I formerly used Reeder on iOS and my Mac with Google Reader to sync, but I'm using the Newsblur app now and not missing Reeder at all. I like the web interface, it is fast and has less bloat than Google Reader's interface did (a plus for me - I was a big fan of Bloglines way back when and it was very streamlined) and supports everything I want to do (read/organize by folder, save stories). I was confused by the sharing in the app at first - I don't really care about a 'blurblog' and just wanted to share a story on Facebook - so I've switched to just copy/pasting the URL instead of using built in functionality, but I could be missing something. I'd also like to just have a two pane display in the web version - tree view of feeds w/folders, and story content - like Google Reader and Bloglines do, basically - the pane in the middle (the list of stories) doesn't do anything for me and I haven't figured out if it's possible to shut it off.
edit: turns out the story pane can be shut off, a recent addition. Thanks Newsblur :)
