Just ditched Feedly after using it for many years. Should’ve done this a long time ago, inoreader is awesome!
I’ve been using Inoreader since the end of Google Reader and: it’s amazing, I love it! Solves all my use cases :)
Shouldn’t we also try to support open-source alternatives? For example I’ve been using Capy Reader on my phone, locally without any account.
Yes there are plenty of good open source apps and tools. However if you want to read your feeds on multiple devices and have them synced between them that means you gotta host your own service like FreshRSS for example, which is probably not an option for the average user.
Good point
Just remember, if its free, you are the product.
Ive been loving Freshrss on a small pi. Costs 5$ per year to host on my own.
If you dont want to host a server, running off a client is very easy. thunderbird has options for it. And there are other clients that exist like: http://www.rssowl.org/
Before I started to self-host FreshRSS, I used Inoreader, and can highly recommend them.
I’m personally quite fond of FreshRSS. it can be self-hosted, but there’s a bunch of providers that offer free or pay-what-you-want hosting.
that being said, the last time I used it a few years ago, Inoreader was very decent if you wanted a very straightforward setup that didn’t require tinkering.
I came across FreshRSS as well while looking for alternatives to Feedly, but can’t be bothered to host it myself and I couldn’t figure out how to get an account on any of the providers from the list, I only get a login page but no signup page.
This was a nice discovery. It’s an excellent substitute for Google News, and in my opinion, even better.
I was really happy a few weeks ago when I went through all my software and noticed that Inoreader was from the EU. Great modern RSS reader.
