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
Small shout for FreshRSS.
Big shout 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!
Just did this exact setup last week. Loving it.
It's awesome, especially once you add all the filters to weed out some junk. What a great, self-contained, private setup!
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? :)
FeedMe
It's the most feature full and compatible with miniflux for syncing

Self hosted Tiny Tiny RSS instance with the Tiny Tiny RSS for Android app. Works really well and never had any issues.

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.
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.

Will leave this one up but would just flag rule 2 in the sidebar. [email protected] is the place for questions - thanks!
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!
I use Feedly on both iPad, Android and PC, itβs 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
Feeder
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 love feedly. It works great.
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.
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.
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?
Must admit I'm perfectly happy with the free tier of feedly.
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.
Nextcloud News - the Nextcloud RSS reader
I use simplerssreader.com. Reminds me of Google Reader
