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.

NetNewsWire with Feedly

[-] randomaccount43543@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I switched to Reeder with Feedly when Google Reader shut down and never looked back

NetNewsWire with syncing through Feedly.

The Feedly web UI is decent, and NNW is great on Mac and iOS.

I use Feedly directly in the web UI primarily on Windows and Linux

It all stays in sync nicely.

I have tried many and Reeder is my default rss reader on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Reeder 5

Agreed. Fed by my self hosted FreshRSS server.

[-] Bushwhack@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I love this implementation. No charges, no random shut down, etc. basically free. Amazing. Glad I’m not the only one.

Reeder with Feedly as the source on iOS, Feedly website on the Mac.

What is the advantage of Feedly as a source?

Thinking of getting rss setup again and have a lifetime Feedly account that goes unused.

[-] grahamj@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Mainly just that it's a web service so I can access it anywhere, but also has good client support for when you want to use an app. I like to use multiple platforms with everything in sync.

[-] cazool@cazool.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Ah. Ok so use it as a common source list regardless of app. Cool.

Was trying out Feedly for the first time in years. Felt a bit dated. Still does it’s job but would be interesting to see how Reeder or others do things.

NetNewsWire is free and light weight in a good way.

I like Lire on iOS. I use the subway and train a lot and lose service, so it filled the need of offline caching. I like it!

[-] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 0 points 1 year ago

I use Inoreader and have been very happy with it

[-] TagMeInSkipIGotThis@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 year ago

Ditto, switched to Inoreader when Google Reader closed and have never changed so it must be doing something right.
