What's your favorite RSS Reader? (lemmy.ramble.moe)

Back in the olden times, I was an avid user of Google Reader. I had dozens of RSS feeds and went through my feeds religiously. When Reader was killed I jumped to Feedly, and while it was alright for a while I just couldn't get into it and eventually fell off and found Reddit.

Well, it's been around a decade and I'm interested in jumping back into RSS. I've seen a lot of suggestions, but right now Reeder and News Explorer are the two I'm looking at. Ideally I'm looking for one that can at least sync between macOS, iPadOS, and iOS; but watchOS would be a an excellent bonus (and tvOS is ludicrous, but News Explorer supports it, so sure?).

Do you use an RSS reader anymore? What do you use or recommend, and why? I'd love to know.

Probably belongs more in selfhosted, but I started to do my own instance of miniflux. Works decent and is clean interface. Didn’t want to have chance of another company ending a product again.

Definitely NetNewsWire (https://netnewswire.com/).

I use Thunderbird for that. I’ve got everything in folders and categories. I can read articles in text-only mode (depending on the feed), save them (even in folders with email messages), or delete them.

I use Feedbin. Happy user since the early days. Feedbin on the web on macOS, Feedbin app on iOS.

reeder on the ipad (best ui for me) and vienna on macos (as its open source, themeable and fast)

I’ve been using News Explorer after trying to find something simple and like how it just gets out of the way on all Apple platforms (iOS, iPadOS, macOS).

For self-hosted, TT-RSS. Otherwise Newsblur.

I only moved to self-hosted because I need to be able to read internal RSS feeds (Huginn etc) otherwise I would have stuck with Newsblur.

Another vote for Feedly. Development has stagnated a bit but it still works well

[–] Sidneys1@infosec.pub 1 points 2 years ago

I've been selfhosting Miniflux on a raspberry pi 3b for a while now. It's very lightweight and minimal, and seems to happily subscribe to whatever feeds I've thrown at it.

NetNewsWire

Lire on iOS, and Feedbro firefox extension on the desktop. I used to use newboat, but switched since the browser is the new OS (j/k)

[–] writerlygal@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I use the old reader most of the time.

[–] wildcelt@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve used Feedly ever since Google Reader shut down. I’ve stuck with it because it does what I need it to do.
