danjayFavourite RSS reader?
Feeder is my choice on Android anyway.
SnowboardBumSame. Works exactly how a RSS reader should.
dantheclammanThe decentralized cross-device sync works surprisingly well! It’s a great app with no ads, minimal but attractive UI, a nice reader mode. The closest successor to Press reader.
UESPA_SputnikIt also supports MaterialYou color theming, which always a nice addition to any app.
How does that cross device sync work?
How does it compare to feedly? It’s got great reviews.
I havent used feedly so i have no idea
gnzlI’ve been using FocusReader for a while now to sync with my self hosted RSS provider (FreshRSS), works great and is under active development.
chtkYeah, FocusReader is my current goto as well. Works great on mobile, and pretty well on a (9") tablet. Clean UI. And syncs with Inoreader.
fkrauthanSelf hosted Tiny Tiny RSS instance with the Tiny Tiny RSS for Android app. Works really well and never had any issues.
[AFK] MarioFeedMe
It’s the most feature full and compatible with miniflux for syncing
Matth78+1 for FeedMe
Would love to switch to feeder which is open source but the following are preventing me from switching :
- as soon as an article is marked as read it is removed from articles list. FeedMe only remove it when switching tag / folder
- can’t lock an article as unread. You can save one but it’s less convenient
- can’t customize swipe gestures
Flym.
The development stopped in 2020 but it’s still the best one for me.
Seconded. Open source. No login required.
PhillyCodeHoundI love feedly. It works great.

NewsBlur. The “full article text” feature is excellent.
I like that the Android app is open source and available on F-Droid and that self hosting is an option, so I pay for premium so I don't have to deal with the hassle of self hosting while I support the developer!
An excellent choice. I do the same with Home Assistant - I COULD set up a wireguard/Tail scale connection to HA, but Nabu Casa works great and supports the developers so they can do more cool stuff like voice assistants so I can finally get rid of the AmazonEars in my house.
iN8sWoRLdLivemarks Add-on for Firefox since I spend most of my time in the browser anyway.

Read You is a beautiful app with material you design. Works great, but the tiny thumbnails, and the fact that not all thumbnails load (whereas in Feeder they do) is my major point of complaint. Still I like using it.
This app made me use RSS on mobile again
Good UI
It can retrieve the whole article if only a preview is available
Freshrss sync
It’s a copy of Reeder on iOS
heddersSmall shout for FreshRSS.
Big should for FreshRSS. No issues with privacy (you self-host on a simple PHP/MySQL server), and you can do as many filters as you like (instead of paying for it on feedly). then get an android reader like FeedMe that supports the FreshRSS stream and you’re golden!
Fwiw, I’m pretty sure mine is just SQLite db. I set it up a bit ago but don’t remember a big db install. Granted it’s mainly me and just a couple others at most so that should be fine.
I think it might support that too. I just do development in the PHP/MySQL stack, so it was a no brainer for me. I have Kodi running off MySQL as well to share with connected devices. who needs plex? :)
Madbrad200Quite fond of Innoreader
Works well on PC and mobile.
NeryK
Feedbro has a simple and customizable UI and supports both Chrome and Firefox.
ParadoxInoreader
Has a feature-set that is unrivaled.
ChozoThis looks really interesting! Do you know of any concerning limitations of the free version anyone should be aware of?
Their free is pretty much just “you get to use a very limited amount of our features, to try em out” and the limited amount is still pretty generous.
I’ve been using them for a very long time, since before the free was actually an option, and have to say they’re absolutely the best RSS aggregator I’ve found
burgersc12Read You is my choice
I use Feedly on both iPad, Android and PC, it’s simple, it syncs across all my devices, it is nice and it covers all my needs.
mizzycI really like Pluma, but it looks like that the dev just abandoned it
It received an update two months ago, i don't think it's abandoned.
From what I saw, the updates are just rare and occasional bug corrections, but never new features.
I don’t use it a lot, but I like Pluma too.
I’m still using Feedly. But I don’t know if is a bad idea (speaking of privacy).
I’ve only ever used Feedly and it does what I want it to do.
agustinh88I’m also looking for an RSS reader, privacy friendly and with notifications. Any suggestion?
I use ReadYou. Has more features and easier to understand than Feeder (at least for me).
Requires no permissions (except enabling notifications), can use local (on device) accounts.
Supports notifications, have not tried it. Also likely requires background refresh, which I don’t use, so don’t know about that.
Thanks
gelberhutFeedme on my phone synced with feedly in the web. Use both platforms.
GeekFTWFeedly. Been using em daily since the day Google Reader went arse-up.
ryand3rkFor years I've used Feedly, but recently tried "Feeder" on Android. I like the minimalist and no ad aspects. Even better it has a "fetch full article" function that works even for some paywalled sites. - downside is no website.
I’ve been using Palabre for years. It’s an app for Feedly but so much better than the official app: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelup…
Carlos de GrailsThis is my choice as well. Sadly it has long since stopped getting updates - while basic RSS features will always work, hoping Feedly integration keeps working.
True, I wouldn’t know which app to use if it ever breaks.
I use Feedly but many websites only show a extract and I need to go direct to their website, I’m guessing this is a limitation impsoed by site owners… Is there any “perfect client” for this?
Some readers like Feeder allow you to click into the article with a simplified Reader view. Next best thing to having the full content in the RSS entry itself
Man, I keep hearing good stuff about Feeder, I might actually move from Feedly to that one lol, is there like an easy migration tool?
Yes, I exported my feedly RSS subscriptions as OPML and imported them into Feeder
ijeffWill leave this one up but would just flag rule 2 in the sidebar. [email protected] is the place for questions - thanks!
httpjamesRead You looks beautiful
I use NewsFlash.
Feedly, but only because it has a web browser URL I can use if I want. I’d have probably gone for a FOSS solution otherwise.
Come to think of it, that’s also the only reason I use Google Keep. Maybe I should look at self hosting…
I use simplerssreader.com. Reminds me of Google Reader
