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.

    What is the advantage of Feedly as a source?

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

      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.

        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.
