Looking to get back into RSS feeds, what are your favourite readers? I used to use Feedly years ago, still a good option?

Will leave this one up but would just flag rule 2 in the sidebar. !askandroid@lemdro.id is the place for questions - thanks!
Feeder is my choice on Android anyway.
The 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.
It also supports MaterialYou color theming, which always a nice addition to any app.
Same. Works exactly how a RSS reader should.
How does it compare to feedly? It's got great reviews.
I havent used feedly so i have no idea
Has a feature-set that is unrivaled.
This 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
Read You looks beautiful
FeedMe
It's the most feature full and compatible with miniflux for syncing

+1 for FeedMe
Would love to switch to feeder which is open source but the following are preventing me from switching :
Self hosted Tiny Tiny RSS instance with the Tiny Tiny RSS for Android app. Works really well and never had any issues.
Hands down my favorite right now is this website where you can setup feeds to send you the entire article into your email. You can also do digests of a weeks or days worth of rss feeds. It's super reliable and just perfect for my use case.

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
Quite fond of Innoreader
Works well on PC and mobile.
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...
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.
I love feedly. It works great.
Feeder
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.
I'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. Only requires RSS links, no other data.
Supports notifications, have not tried it. Also likely requires background refresh, which I don't use, so don't know about that.
Thanks
I have a self-hosted Nextcloud instance, and I use the Nextcloud News app on Android.
Works really well. There's also Inoreader, which is really good. There's also a couple of good ones on F-Droid that you can check out.
I've been using FocusReader for a while now to sync with my self hosted RSS provider (FreshRSS), works great and is under active development.
Yeah, FocusReader is my current goto as well. Works great on mobile, and pretty well on a (9") tablet. Clean UI. And syncs with Inoreader.
Must admit I'm perfectly happy with the free tier of feedly.
I'm still using Feedly. But I don't know if is a bad idea (speaking of privacy).
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?
I've only ever used Feedly and it does what I want it to do.
Nextcloud News - the Nextcloud RSS reader
Flym. The development stopped in 2020 but it's still the best one for me.
Seconded. Open source. No login required.
Livemarks Add-on for Firefox since I spend most of my time in the browser anyway.
Commafeed
free and open source, web-based, can be self-hosted
When Google Reader died, I went to search for it's alternatives, and Commafeed was the only one that used 100% of screen width.
Feedbro has a simple and customizable UI and supports both Chrome and Firefox.
I 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.
For 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.
Feedly. Been using em daily since the day Google Reader went arse-up.
I've been using Palabre for years. It's an app for Feedly but so much better than the official app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelup.palabre
This 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.
Feedbro bc it's easy to add yt rss feeds to it and my browser has an adblocker.
I use simplerssreader.com. Reminds me of Google Reader
