And how do you optimize your workflow based on the feeds? Extra thanks if you are working as an academic researcher gathering feeds from different journals

On Android ReadYou is sooo nice looking. Still missing some features.

I use Elfeed for Emacs, as just one small part of Emacs's slow conquest of other programs on my computer. Before that, I used Liferea, which is a nice standalone feed reader.

Elfeed lets me assign each feed in my list different tags, so I can do basic filtering for what I want to read at any given time. I generally avoid subscribing to any high-density feeds like news sites. I prefer to have maybe a dozen or so links per day that definitely interest me.

I use morss.it to fetch the full text from feeds that only provide a brief summary.

Liferea, in Linux. Simple interface, no fuss, you can split your RSS feeds into folders.

I use Feedbin as my syncing backend and the excellent Reeder on iPhone and iPad to read the feeds.

When GReader died, I switched to Feedly for a bit, but then found InoReader and have stuck with them since. It's got the most options for customization/organization and filters/rules that I need and the Android app is great.

I am using Feedbro extension for Firefox to follow a few anime bloggers, Ars Technica and Hackernews.

Thunderbird; nice and old-fashioned, does everything you want.

Im already using Thunderbird for my emails but havent tried it for RSS. Do you know whether the overhaul of Thunderbird will also change the RSS part, or just the email part?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think it affects everything in some way, but I've been satisfactorily reassured that it's not breaking any existing workflows.

I use Newsboat, it does what I need.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I use Feedly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Currently I use Feedly, but if I had the time I’d love to have a CLI aggregator on my Linux box.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm using Feeder currently, but I am looking into setting up FreshRSS or Miniflux for easier cross-device use.

I used to use Thunderbird, but switched to Nextcloud News to make it work across multiple devices

I use Reeder 5. It’s nice, no complaints.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I use the RSS reader in thunderbird, keeps the emails and news in the same place
