What are you guys using to watch RSS feeds these days?


I use rss2email to send feed contents to my inbox, from there I have a good searchable archive wherever I am - be it desktop or mobile.

I never got the hang of using a browser to read feeds, email suits me much more naturally.


Reeder app, especially now that it comes with a decent iCloud sync and a free Read Later service. The one time pricing is very stressfree, not to mention their polished UX making for a very pleasant experience. If you're comfortable on an Apple platform there's Reeder for desktop and iOS and they're all solid. I do miss a feature or two from Feedly, but in general am a very satisfied convert.


Newsblur has been absolutely fantastic.

Funny enough, it has the exact opposite feature of this submission and I love it. Email newsletters via rss reader.

I use email basically as a todo list, so emails that aren't very important (e.g. newsletters) get pushed out of my inbox quickly. This always have me an uneasy feeling, as I frequently felt rushed to read newsletters when I got them, which I never loved.

Now I can just check newsblur every few days/once a week, and I can read newsletters and whatever else when I'm in the mood!


I run a FreshRSS server on digital ocean droplet. Has a nice web interface and works with the excellent iOS Reeder app.



I am currently not set up to read RSS feeds, but I want to set up Newsboat [1] for a machine connected to a real VT terminal and RSSMii [2] for my Wii connected to my tv.

My own home grown browser based reader written in PHP.

It's different to others in that it only shows items from the currently served rss feed file i.e. there's no item history.

It's like this, because I don't want the pressure of unread items clocking up, knowing I'll never get to reading them.


https://github.com/tontof/kriss_feed - does not need SQL/database - on a RPi0W as "server". I only pay for the domain, free DNS from dns.he.net



Been using this for years, it works really well!



AirSS: https://airss.roastidio.us

It is frontend SPA that works without a backend. It works better with a opt-in backend.


https://sumi.news — simple interface, supports RSS, Twitter, and newsletters.


I wrote a custom program that adds them as todo-items on Todoist, then set it up to run once every night on my server.


I host a miniflux server and access it via Fluent Reader on Android and ReadKit on iPadOS.


Netnewswire!


self-hosted Miniflux + Feedme on Android. Uses the Fever API provided by miniflux. Works great.


FreshRSS and NetNewsWire.
