What RSS readers do you use?

First let me say - SCREW YOU GOOGLE FOR SHUTTING DOWN GOOGLE READER. I WILL NEVER FORGIVE AND I WILL NEVER FORGET.

I moved over to NewsBlur for my aggregator, and I’ve been really happy with it. It’s a small team, and the dev is very responsive to issues and suggestions. Reading articles online is quick because it uses many of the same keyboard shortcuts that GReader used.

On my iPhone I rotate between Fiery Feeds, Unread, and NewsBlur’s app to read my articles on mobile.

Reeder with iCloud sync on iPhone and Mac.

Miniflux

Same. Specifically I use it as a GUI to organize them; for the actual reading, I wrote a script that compiles an E-mail digest periodically: https://github.com/it-is-wednesday/miniflux-mail-digest
- cool. do you have a screenshot (or sample) of what those digests look like?

Another hand in the air for Feedly.

I use fresh rss since its rather easy to selfhost, and read you on my android. Unfortunately read you doesn't play well with fresh rss yet.

Inoreader

Self-hosted instance of Yarr (https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr).

+1

Yarr (https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr) is a versatile web-based feed aggregator that serves as both a desktop application and a personal self-hosted server.

Please be aware that the releases available on the GitHub repository "https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr" might not be the most up-to-date versions. However, you have the option to compile the application from the source code, ensuring that you benefit from essential bug fixes and improvements.

Feedly on the web and my phone (cause cloud sync and blah blah blah)

Newsboat on my Linux box that I ssh into when I'm tired of people and ads.

NetNewsWire

I use an instance of FreshRSS (but I plan on hosting my own) and I use NetNewsWire to access it on iOS

I straight up don't understand how RSS works.

Individual sites have RSS feeds, which are essentially just XML files that contain a list of all the articles on the site.

You run software that's referred to as a feed reader, which contains a list of all the RSS URLs you want to subscribe to. It either periodically checks to see if there's updates to the RSS files, or gets notified of updates via WebSub.
- This seems great for keeping up on your favorite blogs.

Emacs + Elfeed

Freshrss instance and the readrops android app

Self-hosted Miniflux with News for Android.

+1 for miniflux, has all the features and it's really light.

I didn't know about news, might give it a look. I've been using Microflux on Android.

Liferea, newsboat and feeder

I use NewsReader on both iOS and OSX.

I think it’s one of the best.

Self hosted Tiny Tiny RSS instance with the Tiny Tiny RSS for Android app. Works really well and never had any issues.

This might actually help me move away from feedme and greader for android. Both of these apps support Feedly, but the development cycle is extremely slow to resolve some of the bugs it has.

Feeder

Newsboat on desktop and Reeder on IOS.

I pay for access to Newsblur which is an RSS aggregator with open source mobile apps. For stuff like bug feeds and tracking wiki updates on projects I use elfeed within Emacs.

TT-RSS

Inoreader

My question would be: What do you read on a RSS feed, I had one when I was trying to find a different way to read the news, but it didn't hold because I found news too repetitive and only talking about scary things that rarely actually impacted me, so I'd be curious to know what people use them for

I’ve got tons of feeds for sites that interest me. I organize them into folders by subject. I have a folder for online comics, iPhone sites, news sites, sports sites, technology sites, and pen-related sites just to name a few.
I use it as intended; a way to aggregate data into one place. I use mine for podcasts, reddit, discord announcements, steam patch notes, and of course news.

the android app Nunti.

I get easily overwhelmed by busy feeds and not checking every day, so their completely-offline interest algorithm concept is helpful for me

I use the news-app of my Nextcloud to aggregate and manage the feeds. To actually read them I connect the news-app with Nextcloud.

When google Reader was binned I used theoldreader for years, but eventually migrated to Feedly because it synched between my PC and smartphone.

+1 for The Old Reader.

It was the perfect replacement for Google Reader. It's been years since I've used it, or RSS in general, though.

Switched from Feedly to Inoreader a few years back and I really like it.

I’ve been using NetNewsWire and it’s ability to sync through iCloud so I can read stuff on my phone or MBA. Bonus that it’s FOSS!

I wrote my own frontend for TTRSS https://github.com/jeena/feedthemonkey

Newsboat

I've got Feedbro running on a server, sending Twitter posts to Discord. Works well with Reddit posts too

Pluma

I use Pluma on Android since it's the only one on Android I've found thatvhas an option to filter out articles by keywords

I still use gReader. It's hard to find but I still keep a copy of the pro version apk (version 4.3.1_pro_beta) for Android. It just works really well and has the best UI that works the way I like it on both my phone and tablet. The latest version (which is not the one I have) was last updated April 2021. The developer was 'noinnion'.

Reeder app for Apple devices. Been using since v2 and it’s on 5. I appreciate an app that has a reasonable price for killer features, actually gives significant updates for new versions, and doesn’t have a subscription model. https://reederapp.com/

Same. Reeder is amazing. Clean, updated when needed, and fast. Silvio is a great dev.

Pretty shocked that I'm not seeing feedbin here.

It's not free but there's a free trial. Very high quality experience.

I self host FreshRSS and it seems to work pretty well.

I quickly switched to feedly after the Google reader sunset, but I mostly access feedly via Reeder on Apple products. The feedly website works well when needed though.

Tried Newsblur and Feedly. Found both ugly. Now I use the news app in my Nextcloud instance. F-Droid and the Play Store have a good app that synchronises with Nextcloud News.

Nextcloud News on desktop and android

I'm using FreshRSS along with the Readrops Android app.

n/a since i use ground news and watch tldr videos

Nunti

Newsboat.

Matcha. It isn't really an RSS reader as such but instead what it does is, when run (which you can do in the terminal as well), will create a markdown doc with URLs to each of the stories you have on the feed. The idea is you run it either on a timer or manually when you want to update the list. The reason I like it is because I can easily keep a history of past "digests" for later reading if I don't have time right now.
