Readers #

Web:

• Feedly (web)
• FreshRSS (web, open source, self-hosted)
• Miniflux (web, open-source, self-hosted)
• Newsblur (web, open source)

Native, MacOS:

• Reeder
• NetNewsWire (open source)

Native, Linux:

• NewsFlash

Native, Android:

• FeedMe
• Fluent Reader Lite

Recommendation: Newsblur #

Newsblur is probably the best:

• Mobile client included for Android/iOS, OK for tablets, readable, auto Dark Mode, good integration
• Organizing with multiple categories per feed
• Newsletters forwarding support
• Filtering via “infrequent articles” and training
• Easy to migrate away

Self-hosted recommendation: FreshRSS #

FreshRSS is the best for self-hosting:

• Very easy to install and manage via Docker
• Responsive web design, can work on mobile without client
• Exposes the Fever and the GReader APIs out of the box, compatible with Reeder and other clients

Annoyances:

• Feeds can’t belong to multiple categories, making organization hard
• Filtering support for dealing with noise is only rudimentary
• Couldn’t find any Android clients that I liked (FeedMe is close)
