A different answer: I don't use an RSS reader per se, but I use the rss-to-nntp gateway that gwene.org [0] is. It's hosted by the same guy behind the well-known gmane.org.
I then use the Thunderbird built-in NNTP reader to get all my feeds.
I think this is a good way to do it, because it means we could gather all RSS-retrieving capabilities for common sites and share the items much more efficiently than having everyone poll on all servers. When you think of it, a Network News Transfer Protocol seems to be a good solution for propagating sites updates.
It also means that I don't get to share my "seen/flagged" status across devices, which is good: I have taken this occasion to follow less and less sites, and live more outside of the feeds than inside them.
Note: the web reader of gwene.org (read.gwene.org) seems to be outdated; if you point your news reader at news.gwene.org you will get all the latest entries.

- stevekemp 12y agoThat sounds like an interesting approach. I do something similar, I have a server sat around polling RSS feeds and when new entries are posted they're piped into a chatroom which I look at during the course of the day.
