Feeder is fantastic.
I use it for all of my YouTube subscriptions so I dont need a Google account.
Also a surprising amount of websites have an RSS feed. In cases where it wasnt immediately visable, a Google search or even asking ChatGPT seemed to work too.
Wow, I never though of asking ChatGPT what the RSS feed for a website is That's super cool
Feeder is great
I've been using FocusReader for a while now. It costs 7€ a year, but has the IMO the best interface and readability.
I've tried a bunch but I usually just use the web UI these days - using miniflux, which is about as minimalistic as it gets.
I use the Nextcloud RSS news reader as I host my feeds on my own site. It does the job.
I've been trying to find an app that works with my self-hosted FreshRSS instance. Supposedly Readrops supports freshrss, but since it's self-hosted, I am having issues getting the self-signed SSL cert working. Readrops demands to connect with SSL, and despite adding the cert to the Android system trust list, Readrops still throws exceptions when it tries to validate the certificate. Until I can figure that out, I just use FreshRSS web interface, it's acceptable.
Does anyone have an app that supports FreshRSS?
Not a direct answer... But why not roll a LetsEncrypt cert? That'll be accepted by Readrops by default
Doesn't that require a domain name?
