Well, figuring out the sources you want to have in your RSS Feeder is a you task. Gotta know your interests. Find news sites or blogs of those interests and sub their RSS feed.

I use android and use Feeder from the F-droid app store.

I currently use Feedly (its proprietary though)… I have in mind switching to my own instance of FreshRSS which looks awesome and has its mobile compatible apps too.

I would also like to mention two little tricks that made my life easier with RSS:

• First RSSHub: it allows you to made a RSS feed out of almost anything! RSS can be awesome…
• Second, in GitHub if you append ‘.atom’ to any relases of a repostory you get a RSS feed for releases (which I use to track different releases) for example for lemmy https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/releases.atom

Hope this helps!

It would probably be helpful if others knew what platforms you preferred to use. 🙂

If you’re in Apple’s ecosystem, I’m personally fond of Reeder.

I use the Feeder Android app, it’s simple and easy to get set up.

I came across this pdf list while Google searching, but most websites have an RSS feed that you can Google to find the link or find directly from their own webpage.

As for what app I’m using, I came across a bare bones Android reader called Pure RSS

@lunar2m7 I was in the same boat recently. I searched for a service that I controlled. I wanted it to be centralized where I could read it on my phone or on any computer and the read articles would sync.
The best solution I found is Nextcoud News. There’s an android app and it seems to be able to sync with some desktop clients (didn’t try yet).
Im happy with it now.

On the linux or windows desktop, you can use Thunderbird or Vivaldi - both have a RSS feed option. On the linux systems there’s Akregator which seems simpler to me just being focused on RSS. That said, I’m literally only using RSS to track new blog posts from Vivaldi for update releases for work purposes, so IDK about “more normal use”.

I selfhost a copy of Commafeed since it matches my workflow back when Google Reader existed.

It’s browser based so it syncs my read status, has categories, article focused, and some basic content inlining.

I find RSS works best for me when it’s some content that I want to see everything for. If a source I follow only updates once a year I want to make sure I don’t miss it. Or if I want to ignore a source for a month and come back to it later I can do that too.

I use NewsBlur. It’s sometimes clunky adding an RSS feed but the way you can organize things and do 101 settings is terrific. It’s for-pay though (around $30/year? I think) so that may not interest you. But I find it does far more than the free stuff that I tried.

@lunar2m7 I’d go Feedly. Really frictionless and free. Then you can either just use the site itself or if you want software - you can either use their official app or find a compatible reader. I use Reeder (https://reederapp.com/) on both my Mac and iPhone which is lovely, clean, also talks to instapaper - I don’t know what there is on Windows/Linux/Android but there probably will be some pretty nice clients.
