And how do you optimize your workflow based on the feeds? Extra thanks if you are working as an academic researcher gathering feeds from different journals

    I use Feedbin as my syncing backend and the excellent Reeder on iPhone and iPad to read the feeds.

    I use Elfeed for Emacs, as just one small part of Emacs’s slow conquest of other programs on my computer. Before that, I used Liferea, which is a nice standalone feed reader.

    Elfeed lets me assign each feed in my list different tags, so I can do basic filtering for what I want to read at any given time. I generally avoid subscribing to any high-density feeds like news sites. I prefer to have maybe a dozen or so links per day that definitely interest me.

    I use morss.it to fetch the full text from feeds that only provide a brief summary.

    Liferea, in Linux. Simple interface, no fuss, you can split your RSS feeds into folders.

      Im already using Thunderbird for my emails but havent tried it for RSS. Do you know whether the overhaul of Thunderbird will also change the RSS part, or just the email part?

        I think it affects everything in some way, but I’ve been satisfactorily reassured that it’s not breaking any existing workflows.

    I self-host FreshRSS. I’m pretty happy with it. It works well and you can add extensions to customize it if you need something particular. And I use the browser extension so I get notifications for new articles.

    I used to use Feedly before. It was pretty alright, but I got annoyed by just how many things you needed to pay for

    I spent so much time trying to find a good reader. Nothing quite scratched that itch I have for google news but less shit. Eventually I came across Artifact. Not an rss reader but it’s the best news app I’ve come across.
