I used to use feeder but stopped reading news for a while. With feeder, I have to know each feed and add it myself. This is good but I don't see new or other stuff. I think I'd like to have both, everything and only my stuff. Or something where I can opt out instead of opt in.

What do you use?

I'm not sure RSS readers are supposed to solve your issue. They are readers — they allow you to read stuff you subscribed to.

Discovering stuff you want to subscribe to is an entirely different task. Idk, try searching blogs or sites that interest you or ask others what they follow.

If my RSS app would "suggest" me articles not from my feed I would uninstall it immediately.

Inoreader might have something like that, probably that's why I stopped using it.

Just got Capy Reader for Android and it's very good. I was using FeedMe until last week - it's also very good, but I like to try new things, so I started using Capy.

I've been using Capy Reader as a frontend for FreshRSS for a while now, and I love it. It's flexible and intuitive.

It's not useful to discover new content though, I guess you'll need a different solution for that. I usually just search a topic and RSS and try some feeds. I keep the ones I like and remove the rest.

This. Capy Reader is the best for me.

I've also tried:

Feedflow
PodAura
ReadYou
Feeder

Capy reader with freshrss

I use this combo. It's the best I've found apart from not so intuitive authentication.

Nunti or Thud if you are on Android.

Nunti has a feature where users can swipe to get a bit more personalised stuff

Thud, on the other hand allows to subscribe to sources you want and add them to a collection

What I'm doing is, having this kind of rss feed where I'm adding the sources (Capy reader with Fresh rss ftw) and when I need more/other I'm checking Kagi news https://kite.kagi.com/
